My Ride: 545i Sport
Model Year: 2004
Engine: N62
I found out I wasted money ordering M5 rear calipers. They're the same as the 545i's. :thumbsdown:
The only thing needed are the carriers. M5's are taller to accomodate larger diameter rotor.
I'm tired. I'll repaint the calipers tomorrow.

The only way my car is getting M5 brakes is if one you guys come to my house to do it for me
