Nice! Those look awesome with the wheels and lug bolts combo. Would love to see a side profile shot of your car with the new BBK!

For the price weren't they close to just doing a C63 AMG Brembo swap?

Not even close. Plus the C63 swap the Brembo caliper is thicker and wheel Clarence is a easue. On a C63 my 19" Vossen CV3 would not clear the Brenbos with the Ksports it clears with out any problems

Fair enough. I just know on JDM cars the KSport stuff was a little pricey. Good quality no doubt.

The W204 Brembo kit is over $3k and the Ksport is at a great price.

Looks great...where did you pick up the kit? Are the replacement pads only available through them or do they use some other Mercedes model pads?

I purchased the kit from Vivid Racing. You can get replacement pads from them, there are also other options from EBC.

Are you happy with these brakes (I think they are good value for money)? Can you please post some side pictures of the front end?

I'm super happy with the outcome of the BBK, specially with my 19" wheels now I can stop on a dime, even in the rain (witch I don't do often). I will try to take her out this weekend.

I think the 8pot - 356mm at the front and the 4pot - 330mm at the rear will look great....awaiting your pictures!

I assume that the pad wear indicators are no longer functional, right?

I had order the rear kit but found out it would not clear my new wheels that I just order (should get the new wheels in October custom made) so I had to cancel the order. I will wait for the new wheels to come in and see if is possible to fit the kit.
Actually they custom fit it the pad wear indicators and it looks like OEM!
