is the definition of rice.. doesnt look like it belongs. some high end cars use 2caliper systems, usually a smaller one as a helper but this is over the top. IDK to me its Silly. if it was a smaller 2 piston it may start to look ok.

Kinda like putting a headlight on top of your headlight

As was said, some of the high end cars come with dual caliper setups. It may well work, and judging from the intercooler he has at the front end, the car may be putting down some serious power. At least he's not trying to put 500+ horses down with stock brakes. That would just be nuts.
