I want that bumper and skirts but it's so expensive :(

Now I'm reading about tie rod concerns? I wish I knew if they were direct bolt ons.

bump!

TT spindles have a lower ball joint mount to correct roll center when lowered, but have a longer steering arm which slows the steering a bit.
TT LCA + ball joints are longer and provide more negative camber.

Passat spindles are almost the same as GTI's except they have shorter steering arms which quicken the steering a little.
Passat LCAs are aluminum, but geometrically the same as the GTI's.

Yeah there are modifications to existing parts needed to make them work properly, which I know is possible. I'm just going to pull them from the listing since it's not a direct swap. Sorry fellas!

Passat knuckles are aluminum and directly bolt on. I have a set in the garage.

Definitely. They're a direct replacement and roughly 8lbs lighter than the factory components, but they don't alter the suspension geometry like the TTRS units. :thumbsup:

Special pricing for the upcoming show season $1500 for the bumper and skirts as a package. PM for shipping quotes. So far freight quotes to the northeast are coming in between $150-$300
