Thread: I gots brakes... :)

nice but the wheel hides all the goodnes

Those rotors are OE? Are you serious? And your W126 has twin piston callipers front and rear? Thats actually quite impressive. Streets ahead of any performance BMW before 2004 or so.

If you look at the wheel straight like in the pic you cant see them that well, but as long as your head is higher which in 99 percent of cases it will be, they are very visible and infact stick out a bit as the spokes are more open than that of a Hammer wheel. I couldn't get a decent picture at an angle for some reason so i just took one straight infront of the wheel They aren't actually OE,...

Please, paint the calipers BLACK, don't paint them red like most people will. It will simply ruin the classy look this car has!.. I love the quality of the mods you've done so far!

i was planning on painting them silver just to keep it looking nice

God I love your car... amazing stuff! Agree with the red calipers comment - your silver thoughts are much nicer hehe

i feel crap now because mine are red... But great stuff, wish i had the dough to upgrade my brakes, those slotted and drilled rotors look mad, very nice merc

Paint them gold!

Rotors look good. However you need to get some massive calipers to match the big car. Those factory calipers look like they came off a mini (a 4 wheel disc brake mini that never existed, but you know what I mean).
