does anyone know if there is a company that makes body kits for 84 Rabbit/GTI's if you do, do they have a web site or anything like that?

yea the short shifter is great. i reduced my throw by about 65%. the only disadvantage of the shorter throw is that the gears are closer together and the shift lever is a little stiffer to move. If you can deal with those small set backs you should like it alot too.

erebuni has one, strictly foreign does also...there are prolly more but i cant think of them at the moment. if you are interested i have a BBS kit kit that is pretty decent, real subtle it looks almost like the cabroilet kit at first but it isint...im looking to sell it if you are interested. let me know
