Kam, most people selling sets of either fronts or rears tend to be in kits, so you should find the calipers, carriers, discs and pads. Sometimes they will come with lines as well. Some will include the dust shields, but you could run without these if you wanted.

Getting the discs skimmed would depend on how thick they are. It might be cheaper to get replace them.

presuming you have 55mm hubs already (on a 2.0 TDI you should) then you need calipers carriers lines discs and pads. dust shields not vital but nice to have obviously.
