    Oh ow - wrong ones. Pretty sure those are the DBA T3's and they don't make them to suit the GTI/Octy RS - only the Golf R/Audi S3.

    They are a 2 piece rotor. Measure the diameter and see if its 345mm. The brakes on your Octy are 312mm

    Don't the 5e rs have the same brakes as the r? Where can I get the hats from?

    DBA sell them.

    Have you spoken to someone from there or from Brakes Direct or are you just winging it and looking up catalogs?

    T3 should also be available in stealth plain face by omitting the S off the part number (also a fraction cheaper). Handy for those of us that aren't a fan of slotted for majority street use.
