Brakes, rotors, coolant and oil oh my!

So I had my buddy Ben here in Manhattan Beach take care of my C43 Brakes, rotors, flush, coolant, oil, service and I feel so new braking. Amazing the feeling of new brakes and rotors. Safety and high speed. Can't argue with the results.

PS: on a side note, anyone who's looking for an OEM C43 AMG front bumper let me know cause I'm selling my front and side skirts from my 99 C230k with the C43 AMG Body kit. Got rear ended so I'm gonna part out the kit and put back to stock. In case anyone is looking for one. Thanks

Yeah I know but I'm on 17" monos so you can hardly even see the calipers. But yeah still pricey the whole brakes. They retail msrp $980 dollars rotors, brakes, brake sensors. Still a pricey to fix. Exactly why a lot of AMG owners don't drive a lot, or cheap so they put aftermarket, no to bash anyone but it is an AMG car that requires AMG brakes. Go figure. But the stopping is smooth as heck.
