Brakes: Pads/Discs/Calipers: Suggestions?

S40 R-Design 2011 2.0 Petrol:

I figure the brakes need a complete re-do. I've had a slipping pedal for a while now, when holding on foot brake and the overall efficiency could be be better. Figure its time.

I'd welcome any suggestions:

I don't need a radical upgrade, just decent quality, not cheap and cheerful. The car is a keeper.

I wouldn't mind also replacing the backing plates too, whilst everything is apart. The ones on the car are knackered. Make it look a bit prettier. If anyone knows where to source them, that'll be better than Volvo OEM. Those are very expensive.

Thanks in advance.

Richard
