Default you non-sport?

I'd replace the bump-stops with OEM sport bump-stops if so.

That way, your rear passengers can still play games somewhat comfortably.

Default Re: you non-sport?

my searches mentioned that too, thanks for reminding me! ....can the tuning shop get this for me? or should I get it on my own first?

Default do you happen to have the Part #s?

I may be able to get it for a cheaper price other than the dealer. do I need 'em for both front and rear?

Default I only bought them for the rear

as a lower car rides directly on them in the rear.

However you may want to get them for the front while you are doing the install.

Front: 8D0 412 131 F
Rear: 4B0 512 131 B

Default Desi, I just installed Eibach/Koni today

I'll post the write-up and pics later, but definitely a good deal. Email me if you have questions.

Default why did you drop Bilstein?

I am looking at their combo non adjustable. Do not see the need for the adjsutable. Going to be a lot of work to adjust these things even though I often go on the track.
Does Bilstein combo actually come with Eibach springs or is it also Bilstein springs?

Default I heard the ride quality is much better with the koni's

i have no track plans, so I went with the koni's...you are right about the difficulty but atleast the feature of adjustability is there. i am prepping the car only for street use.
