You gonna take an up close and proper look and know you aren't or are looking at a set of Brembo calipers behind a wheel. Pah are you heck , especially if you match that up with some 40 groove rotors, or for a cheaper option some cross-drilleds.

Nah somewhere like the brakes no one other than the pro's are gonna know, they read the brand name and thats what you got, its what it says. Its like clothes, you look at the great big symbol on the front that says you are wearing moshino, CK, Ralph, Valentino, but really you aren't wearing anything better than you can get from Debenhams or some other smaller clothes retailers.
Only the pro's would know they weren't brembos everyone else would wow at your really expensive taste and choice but you be laughing on the inside.
So ya I am serious. Wheels I wholly agree, to stick Oz caps in crappy wheels then yeah, thats bottom of the barrel stuff, but ya would never know the designs of calipers

yeah but it's the driver that knows, otherwise we might as well all stick gti 180 badges and tell people there turbo'd and just be happy, the whole point is we buy those things so we have bragging rights and put's us above the other people who drive one of the most common cars in the uk and to be honest weird looking if it isnt lowered looks like it's driving on stilts
