Gunmetal rules!!!

Yeah, that's the thing; the BBK definitely offers a significant upgrade to the rear, but the fronts do not seem as impressive as OEM when you compare them side by side. The floating M rotors with the brushed aluminum hubs and the OEM Brembo front calipers look freaking awesome behind my BBS SVs, so I am having mixed emotions about replacing them with something that may have less of an impact.


Anyway, I gave Gato first dibs on the Brembos and told him I would hold them until Christmas. If he doesn't buy them, I may refinish them in a different color and put them on the X5m in the spring.
