Brakes are really last thing on any car i'd wish to compromise. Even if you don't plan ever participate in any performance driving, even during daily driving with much more uncontrollable/unpredictable variables/situations, braking is important enough for eg. crash avoidance.
In this case it looks like stockish floating type caliper that is painted, paired with drilled & slotted disks & pad, from less known manufacturer. It won't net you any improvement in most brake functions, reduction in some, and won't even improve looks of your brakes much (my guess out of thin air, that your probable goals are "sporty" (whatever that means by your taste, possibly something "like in movies") "big" brake kit for paying as little as possible, which also might be not what you'll get, with those OE design floating calipers & possibly not clearing stock wheels, so budget rised by need to buy wheels aswell
From googling up on this kit, i'm not even sure this kit is this car specific, which also may introduce fitting issues & dangerously change brake bias compromising brake main functionality.

If want spend less, google on painting stock calipers. Will net almost same look. And while i'd advise against using slotted/drilled calipers, which will only increase brake pad wear and reduce resiliency against cracking, would choose rotors for same OE brakes, of known quality vendor, eg. Stoptech / DBA / Brembo or from alikes, that offer OE sized slotted ones.
