I had to put new brake lines today because of leaking stainless steel lines (both front). I was wondering why
my front rims were always dirty with black stains.
Disconnect this line first so you dont have to remove the caliper.
Disconnect other end on the caliper.
Install the new line with caliper side first.
Note:
The system must be bled each time any brake lines have been detached.
Before mounting the wheel, I checked rotor and pads thickness and surfaces condition.
I also re-torque the carrier bolts (110 Nm) and guide bolts(30Nm).
Hope this helps.

I did not think that these discs would fit my car.

Interesting. That reads 530d for the E61.

Got it! I saw the first BIG box and assumed that those numbers were for the discs!
Anyway, congrats on the brakes!!

Thanks. I can't wait for them to arrive (Friday according to UPS tracking).
Now I need to get me a set of M5/M6 rear calipers with carrier. Any M5/M6 owners that upgraded to
BBK (Brembo, Stoptech, Rotora or Wilwood) want to help me complete this project, pls PM me.
