Do you know if it'll have the flat ends like the stock one?

I'm calling Tuesday to try to get a sample.
these springs in bulk are actually pretty cheap almost half the price of the one spring I ordered, if I order 30 (which looks like we will need it) it's only $11.38 per spring, so $15 shipped should cover it.
