has anyone done this on their mk7 yet

i know there is the hi spec and pumaspeed kits available

but im looking to do it on the cheap again
like the st170 conversion i done on the front

it would be purely for cosmetics as the drums look pony
especially with the 17" wheels


thanks

Hi agree pumaspeeds are way to expensive at the moment

How much are the high spec ones

Yeah they are expensive all it looks like is you need to remove the drum install a bracket then discs and callipers

Unless your going big power and messing with brake bias for track days and stuff id not bother spending that sorta cash on a break conversion

70-80% of your braking power is at the front anyway,
