Before & After - M Performance Big Brake Install

For reference:

Pulled the stock 2 piston calipers off and the 400M's off, mounted the BBK in red along with 403M's.

And how do you like them? They look amazing and that's the biggest reason I want to pull the trigger on them.

Thanks guys. To be honest in terms of performance I don't feel a whole lot of a difference and for the record I had my car recoded.

I was due for new brakes all around so I figured spend a little more and go premium. They look fantastic and fill in your rims much more.

That's exactly what I'm waiting for! Drop a bit more coin when I need brakes and get a set of these.

Nice, I've wanted these for a couple years but just couldn't pull the trigger and now it's too late.

Really, that's too bad! Yeah they certainly are an expensive statement piece.
Ya, factory warranty is up next year so I've been directed to get ready to sell.

Well on the bright side I suspect that means time for a new car!

2013 328i Xdrive. The m performance brake conversion is compatible on all the F30's brother. What varies are the rear rotors. There are two specs, one for Xdrive and another for RWD. You just need to make sure you spec the right ones for your car.

Car wrecking, vehicle removal, or auto recycling is truly beneficial for anyone involved. Apart from the business itself and the (soon-to-be-previous) car owner, there are also others who would gain from it – the community, other car owners, the country’s economy, the automobile manufacturing industry, and even Mother Earth.

Looks Awesome!

Something I've been looking at for a while.

The 18" 400M's fit over them no bother ? I'm wanting to use my 400M's for winters.

Correct they fit no problem. I'm actually doing the same thing - 400m in the winter.

Here's another photo with the brakes behind 400M rims.
