i live in dallas. I wonder how much their BBK run? You might check to see if you could swing a set of E/SL55 AMG brakes. Bensitto seems to have done the conversion and they were direct bolt on. However, I wonder how much clearance was require to make them fit. I'm wondering because my wheels don't have that much clearance and i'd love to do this conversion as well.
Check this link out for pics of his conversion

It should be cheaper than going brembo but I wonder how much the future kits are. Maybe I'll price them out and visit their shop locally. I'll report back.
Btw. Anymore pics of your car Tito? Looking goody buddy.

kiddkynetik Great idea, somewhere I saw for other applications in the 2K range, according to my research they've been in business since 2009 but the website info don't give me a "cozy feeling" 
But please pass along your findings, the bigger and the cheaper we find the brakes the more money left for other goodies

Great looking car Tito. Love the interior. Do you happen to have any other pictures of the grill? Maybe one with the wheel car? I was wondering if I should get a grill like that too.
I'll contact future this weekend to see if they are opened on Saturday and I'll snap some pictures if any kits are available.

hemmissey thanks! I do have mixed feelings about the grill (the fitment is not that great either) but hey Mama told me to install a black grill and that's what I did LOL, Now Mama wants to upgrade the headlights so here we go
