Can I change my stock rotor to a "cooler looking" cross drilled rotors w/o chaning any other parts? How much am I looking at and is it gonna cause lots of trouble? How difficult also is it to install? Thanks a lot.

Yes, as long as the rotor is the same size, you don't have to change the caliper. Talk to Ben at Evosport. I think they sell Brembo cross-drilled rotors for the C-class.

Is it gonna be a hard install and any potential problems?

edit: oh so I can only change with the same size? Forget about it then.

Yes. you can only change for new rotors that are the same size as the original rotors.
