Venom Motorsport to a few brands of Anti Roll bar kits, weitec etc.

They also do FK strut braces.

Might be worth checking them out.

Eibach are the ones to go for imo but it's getting hold of them that's the hard part and they are quite pricey.

I've got a set of Eibach but only got round to fitting the rear one at present. Just fitting the rear one made a hell of a differance. It feels like both ends are connected and work as one rather than the rear being dragged around by the front. The back end is more playful as well.

There is a set of second hand Eibach ARB's on eBay at the moment...

Not me selling, not surely someone on here must be interested as it beats paying full retail.

looked at these earlier but more interested in the bilstein shocks his selling lol.

I got Eibach ARB's, they were a doddle to fit and make the Golf handle real nice.

Its worth fitting poly bushes, or replqacing the stock bushes, at the same time (mainly on the front half of the car) as you have to drop the subframe a little to fit them.

Order some new ARB drop links to fit at the same time as on most 20 year old Golf's these are horribly rusty and worn out.
