I'm thinking there aren't any companies out there making them, and I say...why? there are so many OEM pieces that you could replace and make it look real clean and hot. (small euro bumpers for starters)

I'm just thinking, its an 84 jetta with running problems. You might not want to spend an extreme amount of money, but you want it to look good, which im guessing he's after. i may be wrong but custom fab can be costly

I think they have some body kits back in the day, but they are hard to find.... and they are ugly. Just looking at the car you can tell a body kit would look bad. We have a 84 GLI in our garage and all the euro trim will be added to it and it will be hottness.

Yea you can make a 84 Jetta look 10x better by doing this and alot easier than trying to find a body kit that will either 1) be ugly 2) Hard to find 3) gettin one custom made. trust me its alot easier to just make it clean and slick.
