Going by the title "Bulbs" I believe it is for a pair. Plus the original price was $180.00.

Bought from this guy about 6 months ago when I had my GTI. They come in a pair and you probably won't find any cheaper place. And yes, they are not fakes. Exact same bulbs came stock from VW.

Looks like a good buy, that's a nice price if it's the real thing. There's a lot of fake OEM replica hid bulbs out there. Judging by the packing they came in I would guess those are real though.

Alternatively, you can get the + version here, which does not colorshift over time like the standard ones will

if you check out the Osram CBI bulbs, they are a 5000k bulb with oem quality, brightest 5000k bulbs on the market. And the Osram SVS bulbs are the brightest 35w bulbs on the market. Remember that the higher in the K scale you go, the dimmer the bulbs will get.
