I recently dropped in some KW Comfort CO's and while im very impressed with the ride quality i needed the shop to raise the car a bit as it was just too low for comfort and i wanted the raked look back.

The topic of brakes came up and i was noting that i feel the brakes are quite capable, however visually very small for the 20" Vossen wheels i have.

Recently there was a CLS 550 at this shop who had brembo brakes installed and had left his rotors and calipers. They couldn't be sure if it was a direct bolt on or what type of work would be required and just told me to ask the Mercedes guy when i come back.

I wanted to ask all of you because i hope that someone here has either done this swap and can give me advice or if someone can outright say its not worth the time and money, i would appreciate it.

The car has been tuned, lowered with coil overs so it handles better, and has visually appealing wheels which are not that heavy, so overall i am very pleased with my car, i just wish it had bigger brakes to fill in the wheels.

Alright well, ill talk to the shop figure it out and if this can be done this will likely turn into the " look at my new(to me) big AMG brakes!" thread.

Aside from being unsure if i want to sink 5k into a body kit, i think this is the last modification.

Did you read the thread labeled "Wanted to put AMG brake in E550"? That outlines what you'll have to do including the custom bracket you'll need.
