Would buying a cheap set of coilovers (like off ebay) and gutting them for koni inserts be a bad idea? Assuming that the bodies and perches are worthwhile, would this work?

I have have often thought about this myself. Ive seen a couple VW guys do this, and I think its pretty doable if you get some new springs with better spring rates as well. The only way I would personally justify building something like this is with used dirt cheap units vs buying cheap coilovers. If you buy everything new you'll be out more money than of you just buy a good set to begin with.
