The coilovers will be new and will be shipped directly from rokkor or raceland they even háček a 1-2 year warranty (forget which). The upper mounts required for the rear will be new with new bushings all supplied by me. I will be making the mounts myself. The bushings will be a kit. The only "used" part will be front spindles I am modifying the upper spindle to match the coilovers. The spindle itself is not a wearing item, but I am only using low miles parts to save people from replacing the bearings. Although if someone wants new bearings as well making it a "new" part as well. I can discuss that with them.

The swap is one time then servicing your suspension will be the same as if you were working on a vw jetta. Everything is also reversible should you want to go back to stock and sell the car.
