there many brands to fit a gen 4

tiens
bilstein
ohlins
wantanabe
greedy
zerosprts

just to name a few

Sorry, I meant the only KW that'll fit the Gen 4. I'll look into the others though. Don't reckon I could stretch for Ohlins unfortunately.

I was quoted $3414 for the V2.

Really?

I didn't think it was too bad seeing as cheap coilovers are just under $2k. No?
