To be certain what you have, print out that jpg and bring it out to you car. In daylight

newalfisti, why did you buy marelli discs for the back and not alfa romeo seeing that you the alfa ones lasted you so long. Btw, Alfa discs should last to 30-35k miles anyway.

I really want to get the braided hoses as I had them on previous v6 alfas and they give much more cofidence and feedback when braking as they reduce sponginess quite significantly. Biggish tricky job though as you have to/should bleed out the brake fluid.
My ideal day would consist of doing all discs and braided hoses. A 2yr old son sees to it I get little time at weekends to do this stuff anymore.
