Brake Calipers
« on: July 27, 2011, 12:17:10 pm »

My car is a 3 door,  grey with privacy and 18" Monza,  I'm about to take the plunge on a set of AP racing brakes but need to confirm which colour I want the calipers.

Traditionally i would always go for the Black caliper with yellow AP logo but as the GTi has red calipers all round I was thinking perhaps Red with white lettering would look better.

My only concern is come resale what would be more desireable - the kit is the 4 pot one they use on the Mk5.

Thanks for your help in deciding  :happy2:
