G550 Brake to G63 Brake

I'm changing my G550 brake system to G63 Brakes.
Please any one know if the G550 rotors (disk) will match for G63 or do I need to purchase new rotors and pads.
I have already purchased the red AMG caliper from a friend.
Do else do I need.
Where can I purchase the adapter?

Youll need Rotors and brake pads also,
What adapter? I think the calipers bolt right on, if not I'm sure the dealer sells the adapter in which case just use your friends G63 vin to order them.
Hope this helps a little.

From what I recall, the G63 rotors and calipers will not clear the stock G550 18" wheels. I believe you'll need at least 19" or 20" wheels.

and yes, you'll need adapters for the calipers as well.
