I've got one ordered up so will confirm once it's here.
My rear bar turned up from Super-Pro yesterday and looks idetical to the one on the car other than it's thicker - so it's very clear that for the rear the Mk7 Golf R Super-Pro looks like it fits the TTRS and the Audi RS3 8V BUT the angle of the bend that take it over the exhaust is just off and therefore it does NOT fit.

Will get it installed at the weekend and let you know my thoughts.
Is the bar hollow or solid?

Where did you buy it?

ECS Tuning in the US sells the sway bat kit referenced, but does NOT list it as fitting on a TTRS. I am anxious to see if this installs and fits correctly.

Did this bar get installed, and did it fit?

It got installed, it looked like it was gonna fit but in the end it was rubbing against the right hand side rear drive shaft colar as it comes out of the rear diff.

I've now ordered the H&R front and rear kit on part number 33810-2, should be here in a few days.

How do you find the TTRS compared to your experience with the M4?

The M4 had more front end bite and feedback which I found to be very confidence inspiring but you always knew the back was on the edge, especially as we have so much damp weather over here. Performance wise they were close but the TTRS feels more urgent. The M4 had the M Performance Ti exhaust which made the car sound very loud but way better than stock. The TTRS is too quiet but the exhaust valve controller I’ve bought fixes that and really allows you to hear the engine sing. Everything else about the TTRS is better than the BMW, brakes, build quality, cabin quality, engine noise, seat comfort, infotainment, fuel economy and new tech.
