Thought Red would be OTT so painted one side blue, then not so sure so painted the other side red!

I voted for Red, but then I would as I've GTI brakes on mine. :D
If you goin doin them blue I'd be inclined to go for a darker blue, that shade doesn't quite do it for me. Were R32 brakes a dark blue colour?

Nope r32 was a light blue.
I also kept my gti brakes red (and painted the rear red) if I was asked about it, thats the colour they originally come in! and thats what they are going to stay in (until the big brake conversion!!)
