Brake upgrade

Hey guys. I need help as to where I can get BBK for a clk320 if there's any out there. Or at least upgrade to AMG calipers. But what I want to know would, let's say, calipers off a 04 clk55 be compatible onto my 04 clk320?

*6-pot & 4-pot calipers from (2004-2006) "W209 Clk55/R171 Slk55" which is: (340x32) Fronts & (330x26) Rears,,

*6-pot & 4-pot calipers from (2006-2007) "W209 Clk63" which is: (360x32) Fronts & (330x26) Rears..

Do you know if the front brakes of a 2004 clk500 would be compatible on my 2004 clk320? Because I think I'm better off doing that. Since I can get them off eBay for cheap. Do a really deep clean and paint them red to match the car. And would it be a ricer/poser move if I put some AMG high temp stickers on them? I mean like they are sport calipers made by brembo.

Assume you have the correct sized wheels and offsets to fit the calipers?

I got 18" with 10mm spacers. So there should be more then enough space. And what type of clk55 do you have? Never heard of that type of special made model. Got any pictures?

Brakes aren't something I'd buy the cheapest ones available off of eBay.
As far as the poser question goes, in my opinion: yes. But to each their own.

Yes, 17" will clear the 4-pot caliper, but depend to the Rim off-set,,

some Rims comes with low off-set, that spacers need it to for caliper clearance..

I try the best to spend top cash on something I want for my car. But as a college student it's like a kick to the ***. Thanks though.
