Explaining to customers why things aren’t insured is the worst part of my job. They don’t understand that just because you have insurance it doesn’t cover everything.

Yeah let me figure out a quote for that, shouldn't be too involved of a job. Hard pass. Barely an improvement over stock Gti brakes. Mk7 pp brakes are the same as R32 brakes. 17z are meh in my opinion on this platform.

Oh I didn’t realize. If you have driven a stock-ish mk6 with r32 brakes and a larger master cylinder for example it does feel pretty good. It is not as good as a big brake kit.

The new brembo kits are pretty amazing. kits like Alcon, wilwood etc are all pretty nice except I would never use them on a daily driver. Stoptech is obviously nice.

Rs4 calipers work really well if you can find them. Ditto rs6.

Purely for excess I’ve always wanted to try fitting some ceramic lambo fronts and rears. Maybe one day. Pure eye candy.

I'd sell both of them, buy a gt3 cup car and go on vacation for 5-6 years with the leftover money
