When they were fitted to my car, it was the passenger side that caught.
It rubbed on the bolt head in the picture in the previous post. I then fitted a domed headed , stainless bolt + it still made contact..
Ben I hope you manage to get a fix for this...
Have the shocks done a few miles? Could the rubber bush at the top of the shock be deformed?
If so, a new one should help centralise the cap correctly, moving it away from the bolt.
KW UK have acess to the factory spares price lists and were very helpful when I had to purchase some bits for mine.

Alternatively, a cheaper solution could be to try pressing the internal steel sleeve to one side. But I have a feeling that once its all under load, it will re-position itself based on the shape of the rubber.
They did it from day 1 so im guessing the top rubber bush is ok, After all they havnt done that many miles.
