Another GTI gets S3 Rear Brakes....
QD MBE:
S3/R32 guards have different bolt hole mounting centres, i could not get 2 screws in, never mind 3.
Leave the brake lines attached, no need to disconnect them, and therefore no need to re bleed.

^^^^
Thx Quality Dave :happy2:
You can go back to your fishing now.. :grin:

Ps you will have to remove the disc and caliper, not sure about the carrier............

....That's a bummer! I suppose this can be done without undoing the brake lines and having to bleed the brakes?
I assume a S3 or R32 sh!t guard can't be fitted to the GTI.

your assumption is spot on :happy2: :innocent:

I thought that I read somewhere (maybe on here) that the splash guards from a MKII Leon Cupra fits......maybe I dreamt it..... :signLOL:

RedRobin:
I'll have to sort out the splash guards later this month after my Noodleburgering trip with Hurdy (who IIRC doesn't have splash guards either).
Meanwhile, can anyone advise me, please?:
^ The part painted black is oem silver on my S3/R32 rears and I'm wondering if it will go rusty. I should have painted mine during the many months I had before fitting.. Duh! Is it possible to brush paint without taking off the whole brake kit again? What sort of paint?
