Poopy,
Well, speaking of AMG Calipers, your going to need the rotors as well, and the spindles. AMG brakes will not just mount on any Mercedes, it's not a question of just upgrading, their are allot of other things that need to be considered. You'll also needs to upgrade your wheels to clear these huge calipers and rotors. At a minimum 18" wheels. Buying these parts from Mercedes is probably out of the question, as they would cost you 4 -5K. I would try some salvage yards, or ebay. You can usually finds these parts there. Other options would be to find someone, that is upgrading, but I can't seem why they would these brakes are awesome, and their manufactured by Brembo, and they ae the best in the business. No one makes better brakes then Brembo, no body. The brakes that come on your car are sufficient, the reason why AMG cars have such big brakes, is the level of performance that AMG cars have, they need these huge brakes to slow these things down. Also something to consider, buying replacement rotors and pads aren't cheap beleive me. I'm not trying to talk you out of it, just wanted to make you aware of the costs associated with this upgrade. good luck in your search.

Thanks for the inouts Yuille36,I'm going to get the multi-pieces Rotors discs on my car.I can get the customs Hub,Brackets with cheap,
easy.So i can have any calipers(side,radial mounts)on any cars.
The reason I'd like to go for 6 pistons Calipers as I personally like the looking of the AMG 6 pistons Calipers.I found a bunch of AMG 8 pistons
Calipers available in the market.where's the famous Merc Salvage Yards?
