  • Any idea if these are available in....

    a Blue Colour.. i think the Red Spark Plug Plugs are stupid and clash with the Whole "Volkswagen racing theme"

    on the MKIV Rs

    i know black ones are available... so i may just go that way.. (as mine need replacing they were broken by some fool in the past



    Im getting my Audi S3 strut brace dipped stripped and re coated in a Dark blue (with a likeness to the VWR blue colour)

          Do a search of the R32 thread on VWVortex the code is there and may even be in the FAQ thread.

          Update: you need to get the G2 caliper paint kit as it is made to take the heat generated by the callipers and is the closest match to the original blue.

          A how to can be found on Bills Web Space just over half way down the page. Your best bet is to remove the callipers to do the job properly. I have also asked Graeme if he has the actual VW paint code for you and will post it if he does.

          You can also buy the G2 calliper paint from Ebay

            It's actually vw jazz blue witch is a stock colour for the golf, the prototype R32 was painted in that colour with colour matching calipers etc when production came of the car that that colour stuck around on the calipers and suspension if only they decided to leave the big brembo's as well.......
