Caliper render for this kit:

The 3H7 Arteon carries its mass like the grand tourer it is: a long, four-door fastback that gathers speed quietly and then asks a lot of its front axle when you wash that speed off again. On the front-drive 2.0 TSI and TDI cars especially, weight sits forward, and repeated hard stops from motorway pace are where the standard front discs start to feel it. The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit answers that with more thermal headroom up front, exactly where this chassis loads up.
This is a front-axle big brake kit, a matched pair of front calipers and discs, built for a heavy, fast road car rather than a stripped-out track special. Pad compound choices run from Street through Sport to Racing, so an Arteon used for long high-speed runs and the occasional spirited B-road can be matched to a setup that stays firm without punishing the daily commute.
What this big brake kit does for your 2017-2026 Volkswagen Arteon (3H7)
After fitting, the first thing you notice on the Arteon is a firmer, more progressive pedal: the bite arrives sooner and holds consistent as the discs heat up, instead of going long and vague after a few heavy applications. On a car this size that translates straight into confidence shedding speed down a slip road or into a fast sweeper, because the front end keeps doing the work rather than fading. The Racing pad compound steps that up for harder use, biting at higher temperatures, while the Street and Sport pads keep noise and dust manageable for everyday and fast-road driving. There is a visual side too: caliper colours included at no cost in red, yellow, gold, black or anodized black, with a Custom Color or premium finish if you want it to stand against the Arteon’s understated bodywork.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
XYZ Racing’s front kit replaces the Arteon’s standard front setup with larger, more heat-tolerant hardware aimed at sustained braking on a heavy road car: a hollow-body caliper and a two-piece floating disc that sheds heat while keeping rotating mass in check, with a floating bell that manages thermal expansion. It is a front-axle package supplied as a left-and-right pair, leaving the rears as standard, which is the sensible balance for a fast tourer that does most of its stopping over the nose. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price. Three pad compounds are offered, Street for refined, low-dust road use, Sport for harder fast-road work, and Racing for the highest-temperature operation, so the same caliper can be tuned to how the car is actually driven. Painted caliper finishes are included in red, yellow, gold, black or anodized black, with a Custom Color in any Pantone at £150 and premium polished-forged titanium, polished gold or polished silver plus candy teal, blue, red and orange; centre bells can be two-tone anodized in five colours or titanium, and a Hollow Racing caliper rated to 1000C is offered for the hardest use. The focus throughout is giving the front axle the thermal capacity it needs without turning a comfortable Arteon into something harsh.
Fitment for the Volkswagen Arteon (3H7) (2017-2026)
This kit is mapped to the Volkswagen Arteon on the 3H7 chassis across the 2017 to 2026 model run, as a direct front-axle fit for the fastback and supplied as a left-and-right pair. It is a front-position kit only. Confirm your exact year and variant when you order so the correct pad compound and caliper colour are matched to your car before you check out.

Choosing your spec
Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.
Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing
Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.
Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.
Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing
Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.
Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish
Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).
Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.
Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).


Centre bells
The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
