Default Vastperformance Stage 2 Clutch & Jason (Shift boot Question)

VastPerformance.com stage 2 Clutch is lighter than stock & stronger than stock RS4 clutch. It is so much easier to shift smoothly and is a pleasure to drive. I got mine for around $650.00 but they also throw a few $$$ your way if you send them back your original clutch.

jason sowers

Where did you get the silver paneling for your (shift boot, ashtray, drink holder)???<ul><li><a href="http://vastperformance.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21&amp;products_id=62">http ://vastperformance.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21&amp;products_id=62</a</li></ul>

Default I've had a Clutchmasters stage 3 and liked it alot.

Tried the Clutchmasters stage 3/4 hybrid this time on my new car and haven't gotten a chance to really drive the car yet so I'll let you know.
