Any info would be great, always looking to improve the baja choices!

FYI, when searching for the kit, I was 'logged in' looking for parts for a vr6 wagon, so that would be a for sure lift to a bug!

Ya I'm hoping to find a cheap pair for the front and some jetta wagon springs for the rear. I hope someone on here or maybe ebay will have a cheap pair, cause I don't wanna pay $400 for a new set of 4 when I only need two lol.

Any update on the $80 4-inch lift? That would be a real winner for doing a new beetle baja.

Same here, short on funds for the metalnerd kit and we have 8" of snow at my house still. Even as the snow's melting in the rest of western WA, I still can't get it up the driveway without high centering
