Rare like a motherf**k*r and no longer in production. Good luck finding some, and don't expect to find them cheap.

A59 had different arches. The Kamei ones are awesome, full stop. Period oem+ styling and suits the mk3 so well. There is a silver Jetta in the US running a full Kamei kit and it looks so aggressive but so close to stock too, it's sweet  :cool: That silver DTM style mk3 in PVW last year used some Kamei parts too to the best of my memory.
