Ahhhh ok understood RE PM, to the enquirer about RS4 stuff yes I've got some but also some R8 fronts paired up with some New RS6 discs to be for sale shortly from my "personal collection" that resides under the stairs as opposed to the other stuff in the workshop outside. These  calipers below in the pic were fully refurbed by me last year and will be on a very popular showcar this summer. The R8's will get the same process, also supplied the RS4 Rear fitting kit for the same car.

Ive got front and rear hubs for Mk4, Mk5, TT, Scirroco so mocking stuff up is straightforward

Love this pic, on first look they look orangepeely but if you look carefully its the reflection of the bubblewrap in the finish!!!! :happy2:

Welcome to the madhouse, nice car and love the company vehicle  :happy2:

Wow, nice work on those calipers!  I take it brakes are your hobby?

I'm repainting my R32 calipers at the minute, I wish they'd look that smooth!

Thanks Tom, less of a hobby - little bit more self imposed Semi Pro! but always looking for ways to mod dubs at reasonable cost, for example with a bit of DIY we ended up getting Lamborghini Diablo Brake KIt on a Mk4 for less than £500!

Just through dealing with requests we ended up with a Mk4 Platform solution for every caliper made by Porsche since 1998, from Carbon to Boxster Rears!

I'm slowly coming up with solutions for Mk5/6/Rocco and for me this is the best bit doing the development/fabrication/testing got a guy driving around on some 996 Turbo fronts on a 350mm disc which hopefully will prove itself to be worthy of getting a few kits made up. Also planning a £Three £figures setup Stage 5 lookalikey kit the design of which is 90% complete

The beauty of the Mk5 is the massive amount of parts that are available without modification or machining that can go on from all the Audi Stuff to a whole lot of Mercedes discs.

Anyway thanks for the welcome - got introduced to the site by Tony Danza from over on ukmkivs
