No, they use specially designed super stiff "H" mounts

Default absolutely positive, that you can sell ALL front related hardware...

I put on Stop-techs and 12 months later, sold my complete front sets from my 180TTC to a VW guy. He even sent me a pic with them on his ride.

Get rid of all of the OEM TT stuff and make some money. :-)

Default Yup. Check out their site for more info - that "H" bracket is called a bridge and bolts directly...

to the car for added stiffness.
Because of that setup, all the OEM parts are available to sell to someone else.

Default Keep in mind that there are a few companies are selling the whole setup

with new rotors etc for about $500.....anything you can get close to that is $$$ in your pocket IMHO

I would think that if you get 350-400 + shipping, you are doing OK
