I think i'll do mine red for now and maybe get gti brakes in the future...
Would they go straight on and how much would they be you think?

Yes mate the GTI brakes fit straight on.

Obviously you'll need new discs,pads ect.

Has Lee said mate will fit straight on and unless you get the disc and pads and they are decent then you'll need new ones.  Has for price range from around £100 to about £400.

When I did my GTI brakes I just changed the carriers and discs then painted the original caliper red, was alot easier and ment I didn't have to bleed the brakes after.

The carriers I got second hand for £40 and the disc were new from tps for £80 pair. Not sure on pads as I had them already (but again they are the same as the gt tdi pads)

Car looks really good! I painted my standard calipers with hammerite red and it works well,  it's a good solution until you upgrade to 312mm setup whenever that may be. Worth keeping an eye on fleabay as your not in a rush they do pop up occasionally.
