    as for it being a project, most of the blokes who buy these kits, bang em out over a weekend, its pretty much swapping coilovers over and hooking them up to some valves, compressor and a tank.......

    Just tell them to write the value as $800 on the paperwork and send the invoice separately. That's what i've heard people do with Dragster parts and Weber kits for 16v's... But i have to actual experience with that..

    ok, just an update on what im doing

    ive decided to go with the bagyard kit, it pretty much all cae down to shipping prices, and open road tuning seemed to give a better deal.....

    once some cash flow comes through, the bags will be ordered... BEST!

    they are a contitech bag (continental) and run on a custom airride dampered bilstein shock! they take a month to send over but itll be worth the wait!

    some specs

    • Full Body Bilstein Struts
    • Custom Strut Length
    • Clearance for large wheels and offsets
    • Available Sway Bar Mounts (Mk5/R32)
    • Custom Conti-Tech Bags (designed specially for the bombers)
    • Modular design for easy servicing and rebuilding
    • CNC machined plates and hardware
    • 1/4" NPT male port
    • Stainless steel leader lines included
    • Uses stock bushings and bearings
    • Semi-Gloss black finish
    • Black anodized bag plates
    • Laser etched bag plates
    • Hand assembled in Austria
