I say if you can afford to play with a Mercedes, then you can afford real Brembos.

It's pretty tacky....also considering if you put it on your rear breaks, it just won't look right if the rotors aren't the right size either...imagine some brembos that has like an 8 or 9" rotor...funny stuff. IMHO, just save up for the real things, performance can't be replaced by looks....

What a joke!

Also, there could be a potential safety concern. If that stupid thing came off and was flying around in your wheel well.......just think of the damage that could do.

I guess that anyone that was dumb enough to put those on thier car deserves it!
