Bilstein HD Damper Kit, Shock and Strut Set for Mk4

What It Is
A complete Bilstein HD strut and shock set for the Mk4 platform, using Bilstein's monotube gas pressure damper technology. Bilstein shocks have a long track record in Formula 1, NASCAR, SCCA, rally, and off-road racing, and are used as original equipment on brands including BMW, Ferrari, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, and others.

Why Bilstein's Gas Pressure Design
Bilstein pioneered the monotube gas pressure shock absorber over 40 years ago and remains a leading name in the technology. The design is built to deliver precise handling, strong stability, and a noticeably controlled ride compared to conventional dampers.

Important Compatibility Note
These front struts will not work in combination with KermaTDI's 1 inch lift kit.
