My Ride: 2006 550i Jet Black, matte black grill, red Rpi ram air scoop, gloss black stock wheels, acs trunk lip spoiler, darkest CA legal tint on all windows, tinted tail.
hi im new to forums and new to BMWs. I have a '06 550i and just yesterday i got a service light to change the front brake pads, ive been wanting to paint the calipers red for a while now, and i also wanted to get a complete brake change, is there anybody/vendor out there that sells a complete set, rotors pads, and sensors. i have black gloss wheels so i dont want alot of brake dust. i also heard that blank rotors are best but i kinda like the drilled. Any suggestion on where to get a complete kit?
