Question about AMG Brakes
I've been searching for the answer and coming up with nothing.

Are the AMG brake system rebadged BREMBOS or are they a proprietary system?

The Brembo rep told me they are made for MB by Brembo.

They definitely not the Brembo GT's, which are much lighter weight aluminum calipers, versus the anchor weight factory AMG versions.
