I'm about to place an order from http://www.parts4vws.com for some stuff. I'm going to be getting the H&R coilovers (part # 29865.4) for my car. I have a 99 MKIII VR6 with about 40k miles on it. What else do I need to get. I've been told I need to get new bumpstops. They appear to be priced individually on http://www.parts4vws.com, $10 for the front and $15 for the rear. Do I need new strut mounts/bearings? I just want to make sure I get everything, I want to do it right the first time around.
thanks for the help.

hmm...that's strange. i thought one or two people on here had coilovers. guess i'll just buy the cup kit like everyone else.

Lots of people have coils.. just be patient.
U will need new strut bearings for the front and new ones for the back. If your running stock wheels ur gonna need HR 5mm spacers for the rears to not rub on the coils. besides that, drop it and have fun

I got my H&R's from there as well. You should get new strut bearings while you are at it, but you don't need the bumpstops. H&R's come with bumpstops already. Buying that suspension was the best money I have spent on a car - you will love it.
