2003 C230K Coupe Orion Blue
FS: C32 Brakes + Rotors
Doing this for a buddy who bought these things then decided not to put them on his car. Would've taken them except I roll on 16" rims in the winter and we actually get snow here so I can't upgrade. 
Calipers: Part # 002 420 20 83. Paint is a bit rubbed off because the previous owner had rubbing issues with his rims.
This package includes Calipers, Pads, and Rotors.
Rotors are Brand New In Box. Pads have been installed but are also BRAND NEW. All parts are OEM.
From what I understand they're plug and play though you must make sure your rims will clear. 17+" rims are required. Not sure which OEM ones will clear, but maybe another forum member can help with this one.
$750USD + shipping, firm. Can ship to Canada/USA. Can throw in spacers free of charge (you pay shipping), if required.
Thanks guys!

***UPDATE***
Found out that the rotors are NOT brand new. However, the ridge on them is less than 0.5mm, so they're pretty much brand new. Pads look very new though (though I can't guarantee they're unused), probably 95% new, if not 99%.
More pics for your viewing pleasure.
Oh, and my buddy lost the golf ball, so it's not included

usually when there's a lip on the rotors it means that it needs to be replaced..and its been talked about on this forum before that mb rotors shouldnt be machined......ur better off just selling the calipers and brakes...

^ Are you sure about that? Because the pads don't cover the entire rotor (ie it doesn't go 100% all the way to the outer edge) you'll pretty much start a ridge the first time you hit the brakes.
My understanding is that the rotors should be replaced when the ridge is a few mm deep. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I thought I heard somewhere that it's around 4mm for the fronts and 2mm for the rear for the W203, can someone verify?

To clarify: caliper part #s are
0024201983 LEFT
0024202083 RIGHT
Might want to make sure that you have one of each, and show a pic of the #s if possible.
I'd be interested in the calipers alone (which do clear the C7 17" wheels for the ccoupe, as an example - not sure about other MB 17 inchers), but not the rotors or pads, and I honestly think you'll have a tough time getting rid of either set.
New calipers are a little over $600 without shipping, so if you're interested in just getting rid of the calipers at a reasonable price, let me know.

So, used Calipers with gouges, used pads and used rotors?
I have to agree with Tommy...you need to get real on the price.
NEW Calipers are 273 each, rotors about 100 each. Pads, depending on personal preference, 75-150.
Try closer to $500....the original group buy had the whole setup for $550.
I paid $600.
If you are actually hoping to sell these, you should measure the thickness of the rotors, and have them checked to see if they are warped before spending the major $$ to ship them.
Just get a shop to spin them up on a lathe just to see if they're usable.
They weigh about 33 lbs each if I recall correctly. Most of the shipping cost is from the rotors.
I estimate that the pads shown are about 1/2 way through their life. I've done mine 3 times now, so I have some experience with that. If thats stock pads from MB thats about 10-20K miles.

Hey, what do I know, I'm just selling the stuff for my buddy. 
With that said though, my understanding is that the pads are quite new (the guy just stuck them in but didn't use them much, if any at all)? The pads still have those diagonal "cuts" in them. Mind you I'm comparing them to my own stock C230 pads (which I replaced once). Never seen new C32 pads before.
I told my buddy to lower his price on the whole deal. Now he wants to keep them Oh wellz, I tried to help him. Thanks for the interest anyways, guys. Cheers.

Geez, what a caliper tease. 
j/k - damn, was hoping to save a little money, since I'll be getting whatever C32 calipers I buy powdercoated anyway. Oh well - looks like I'll have to get 'em new.
