For a price perspective:

$1200.00 Total
($300.00) Shocks
=$900.00 Total (without shocks)
($800.00) Apprx. price for standard balljoint front end,
Spindle to spindle, including debatable TWX steering
box.
=$100.00 difference in price.

The cost redeeming side of the VW set up is not needing as expensive shocks as the coil overs. I guess since these front ends do not come with springs (other than the shocks) It s not fair to deduct the $300. This brings the difference to $400. Now you still have to buy shocks for the VW front end, so lets subtract $150 for some Bilsteins and call it a day. Now we are at $250 additional for Alexes front end compared to VW.
