Help with finding a break kit
Hey guys, so Mercedes’ quoted me $4000 for pads and rotors all around with out install. Definitely something I’m trying to avoid and go with something else. I’ve been looking all over eBay and fcp euro etc and can’t find anything for a 2013 c63 with p31. Everything seems to be meant for cars without p31. Looking to see if someone has been through this or has any links that can lead to finding a setup. Located in Canada if that helps.

You're looking at about $1300 in parts (depending on which pads you go with). Maybe 3h of labor to do both F&R, although a competent mechanic should be able to do it more quickly.
If you're not comfortable doing it (which, no offense, I'm guessing is the case based on the challenge you had identifying proper parts), find an indy that's willing to use parts that you supply.
You should be out the door for $1750 or less.
All that being said, I might want a second opinion instead of trusting the dealer that both your front and rears (pads and rotors) all needed replacement.

Pads and rotors
get the two piece brembos for the front - they are about $500 each - and your choice of pads. Genuine MB rears are $65/each + pads.
