Default CPP Bits all around?

Is anyone daily-driving an A4/S4 with an all-CPP suspension setup? I know many people claim their cars are still entirely streetable with just CPP's upper control arms and tie-rod ends installed, but what about with the lower control arm mods, rear upper control arms, tie-rods, etc. installed as well?

I'm asking because I've driven all-metal suspended racecars before and know just how bad the NVH can be, and I'd like to keep my car at least semi-comfortable for my daily commute...

Default i dont have experience with their parts, but as long as their properly..

installed and maintained they should be fine. I think cpp designed their stuff with the intention of the cars to be run on the street too.
Anyone else have any info?

Default cpp parts are not really made for the street. but many people do it

location and weather have been the biggest issue for control arm wear but the new style should take care of the probems.

if you order cpp upper control arms make sure you get the new type with built in oem style rubber boots.

diffrent people have diffrent expectations but the car is not going to ride the same after all the control arm rubber is removed.
