Yellow makes me think Bilstein or Boge. If you clean up the shock a bit you should found a stamped number and manufacturer about midway on the housing. A lot of the time you can't see it if the shock is dirty.

......or Koni Sports or Monroes. Yellow is a popular shock color. You'll need more info than the color.

"hella".... must be from northern CA?

If they are Bilstein, then thats good. You can get them refurbished if needed.

I have a set of these in my 323i but mine have been rebuilt recently by Bilstein so mine are essentially sports now. I believe they were available as a factory option- you can look them up on ETK if you have it.
