to go with 360mm,, and if i got the SLK55AMG Brakes i don’t have to explained all that points above....!!!

ZAYED,,
I have an E55 caliper in my hand right now and I can say for 100% sure it is not a direct bolt on to a C43 rear spinle.

All S/SL/CL/E55 Calipers uses 12mm screws instead of 10mm in C43, you have "2" options to fix them:,, drilled the rear hub Calipers screw holes

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

ZAYED,,
you should put your own name Power by ZAYED as a logo on your calipers

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?

Thankss Dennis,

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....!!
