Ah interesting stuff, I'll be going yellow with mine. Where did you get that seals & dust caps kit?

I used that refurb kit too, as Mike says it`s well worth taking the time to refurb them properly before fitting.. you`ll feel much better about it when done.

I went for conservative black on my calipers and did the carriers silver (Hammerite smooth):

Would the 312mm setup from an 09 Octavia VRS fit an Ibiza FR?

As said only a mk1. I think the mk2 setup will physically fit but the calipers are too big for the wheels to go back on!

The specific setup you need to fit a pre-facelift FR is the ATE/Teves 54 calipers from the cars listed earlier up the thread... with the 312mm carriers.

No they won't. Different fitment as they are 5x112.

Just get them from a Mk4 Golf GTi Anni, Mk1 Octavia VRs, Mk1 Audi TT or mk1 S3, MK1 Leon Cupra

Im sure the hubs are different, therefore the carriers are too
