What did you do to your mk7 today?

[JC_451]

Washed the wheels today, or yesterday really.

If aliens ever invaded the planet and their only weakness was brake dust those of us with the PP brakes would be the Earth's best defense.

Did the same thing yesterday. It’s insane how quickly brake dust accumulates.

Welcome to the world of partial R ownership. I can wash my car on Monday and then wash my front wheels on Wednesday, Friday, Sunday....and every other day until I wash the car again. That’s when I don’t drive it hard.

Ceramic brake pads in your future?

Do you have any recommendations?

Centric (StopTech) PosiQuiet Ceramics are the ones i went with. Compared to OEM pads these are quieter, 90% less dust, but a bite less bite.

QFT and an acknowledgement of laughter.

EBC red pads are also supposed to be good.

That's what a friend of mine uses on his MK7 PP GTI. Loves 'em too.

Found out I lost a.... chin brown?
Checked online and ECS has it for $120. ShopDAP has it for $96. Found it on Aliexpress for $22.58 for both sides shipped. Might take a couple weeks but whatever.

I purchased Aliexpress.
Looks good.
I have not removed old to compare so hope they work.
Molding and color looks good. FYI.

Nice find and thanks for sharing it. Don't forget to post back as soon you receive it and share some pics after it is installed.

I have had the EBC red for about 10k km now and I really like them .

Got springs, rear sway and dampers installed yesterday. Super happy with the set up. Got the koni yellows and did some tweaking on the fronts more to a softer setting while keeping the rears a tad stiffer. Very happy. Paired up with Eibach Sportlines. Love the height now
