Can you replace Audi s3 decal on front brake calipers ?
« on: May 24, 2015, 02:34:27 pm »
I have a set of Audi S3 front brake calipers on my Edition 30 and wondered if you can remove the S3 decal and replace with a GTI decal?

Pretty sure the decal is on a seperate plate which clicks in the caliper? Would be easy enough to change I'm sure

When I did mine the s3 was just printed on the clip so a bit of sanding, primer and paint did the trick. I put a gti sticker on mine and have come up a treat  :happy2:

I had mine re-powder-coated as they were scratched and had a local sign firm make me up some new vinyl's.

That clip look really nice! :congrats:
I just bought the mk6 R clips and applied them to my R32 front brakes painted black on my GT Sport.
