lamborghini brakes

Post by Ramone » Mon Aug 16, 2010 11:09 pm

I'm harbouring a strange obsession to get these (front at least) for my RS - anyone got any idea of price / is it possible?

I'm assuming they might be better, but won't say 'lamborghini' on them!

Personally I can't see what's wrong with the standard "RS" logo on the black caliper - I can see the point of upgrading to have the larger set up or ceramics...

But Lamborghini?

Really?

I smell blood in the water...
Ramone, here you go, get back in your box mate.

It was kinda odd, as far as I know there's never been a collaboration between Audi and Lambo. Now if you wanted to add some Porsche decals to your callipers.... *Nods in approval*

Ramone! Noooooooooooooo. You will be creating the bastard child of Frankenstein!

Drybeer: you need to brake later into corners and go faster than 50mph. :D

Sorry Drybeer, re-read your post. I withdraw my flippant remark and will eat humble crumble.

I didn't know that, was that the offical line (a la RS2) or just a platform share?
