Change your settings depending on the file you are editing.

Here is a piece of code I used for this purpose a long time ago.  For
C source files in a particular directory, it uses the Tcl style (a
variant of the BSD style); for other files it uses GNU.  Rewrite as
appropriate and attach to your c-mode-hook.

(defun tjt-set-c-style ()
  (if (and (buffer-file-name)
	   (string-match "/home/syzygy/tclstuff" (buffer-file-name)))
      (progn
	(c-set-style "BSD")
	(make-local-variable 'c-basic-offset)
	(setq c-basic-offset 4))
    (c-set-style "GNU")))

There are probably lots of other ways to accomplish the same thing.
And of course you can set anything there; for instance the behavior of
electric braces (that sounds like what you want).
