that would be tight if they used the E55 8-piston brake system. I just might wanna upgrade to those too....

The E 8 piston brakes are 3-4k for a set, but they reportedly weigh a hell of alot more than aftermarket brakes (40 lbs is the number that comes to mind). Brembo now has a rear brake kit for the 209, and the list price for the Brembo kit is ~$5500. For that, I'd just buy the Brembos. I actually still want the Movit 6 pistons...

yeah i think the Brembo kit is 355 4 piston in the front and 328 4 piston in the rear. The Movit that I want is 380 6 piston front and 328 4 piston rear, but the price is a tad more than the Brembos.
