I've seen it all now, might look at drawing something up for mine, can't let my 312mm front discs go to waste when they are replaced :laugh:

Seen a few do it on the Skoda forum, the view is that it makes a lot of difference.

I'm still looking to fit 256mm vented on the rear without spending over £100 :(
