They certainly make a disc that looks exactly the same.

Yeah that the ones, its either an expensive to produce copy, or the German brake manufacturer makes them for VW.

Fitted Zimmerman on our old SQ5 and found them superb. Would definitely use them without hesitation

Zimmerman are OE on some Porsche, I have fitted 2 x sets on a 911 RS, wouldn't use anything else! :)

Slightly off topic - how do people feel about fitting perforated discs on the rear of their GTI's?

Price wise they aren't much more or stick with the OE look?

They are not Zimmerman's, they coat their discs in the anti-corrosive paint entirely whereas SHW only coat the hub and the vents.

SHW are the manufacturer for VW, this can be clearly seen in the second photo where the maker is stamped on the bell housing https://www.killerbrakes.com/product/front-clubsport-s-brake-discs-340x30mm-5q0615301c-new/?srsltid=AfmBOorp3-mkQXc8djn_n9mO2wZbkLN9ODTIOSFcq5EOHXxRGdE2hd_7

I got a great deal on Auto Doc last year for €250 for the pair.

Pads are made by TRW, personally I went with Ate ceramic pads for my SHW discs and wouldn't go back to semi-metallic pads https://www.vagbremtechnic.com/genuine-mqb-clubsport-s-front-brake-pad-set-5q0698151ag/

Finally, yes I also installed matching vented and drilled discs on the back from VBT and they complete the look nicely https://www.vagbremtechnic.com/vbt-drilled-rear-disc-pair-310x22mm-clubsport-s-pattern-5440744126cs/
