380mm floating disc, 8 piston caliper, pads, hoses and clearance guide..
But it aint cheap....also need 19" rims to fit.

Brembo GTs > Factory AMG Brembos.
The GTs felt so SOLID that it made the OEM brakes felt soft and weak (Eventho they are already pretty strong).
Both the calipers and rotors are larger than stock AMGs, however, they(especially the rotors) are lighter than the AMG ones.
Stainless brakelines are also replaced with brembo GT ones. Im sure they played a big part in the improved stopping power too.
15" Rotors.
8 Pistons front & 4 Pistons rear.
