If you read the begining of this sentence, you well understand that i explained about how to put 8-pot from S/SL/CL/E55 & C63 Rear Calipers & modify
them to match c43 front & rear hub, which i did, not in generaly, i know that the SLK55AMG front Rotors is 340mm & bolt on directly, but in my case i need
to go with 360mm,, and if i got the SLK55AMG Brakes i don’t have to explained all that points above....!!!

12mm with new threads or put a compressed sleeves in the Calipers screw holes it self to reduce 2mm,, *in my opinion: make a screw threads
in all F/R Calipers & Hubs to avoid any loosing scerws in future......

Nice upgrade Zayed, how does it feel? Now if you just did red lug nuts & an orange wheel, you should have all the Starburst colors
You plan on keeping them pink or will you be going with something more masculine?

Looks good Zayed!
What did you do with the swaybar?, are you going with a full C36 kit?
HWA is nice touch, I tried to get HWA202 as my number plate but it had already gone out as standard issue on some toyota

where do you buy these calipers/rotors?
do you get them for cheap price in UAE?
i see you have many vivid colors on your car, is that popular to style cars in UAE?

got those 1-piece front Rotors from locally shop here,
and 2-piece rear Rotors from Germany(Thankss to Fabian"kaype", he helped & shipped them to me)..
No, they hate colors here, that's why they advice me to choose which "Baskin Robbins" branch which i have to deal with....!!
