335i brakes

Hi all, would the front and rear calipers & discs from a 2006 335i coupe fit my 2004 E87 120i?

Front 100%

Rear, Hand brake will not work and it will bolt up if you mod the back plate/dust shield( bend it away). Make sure you have a Hatchback( 1 series coupes are special rear hubs)

Thanks for the info. So your saying the handbrake will work if I bend the back plate out the way or the calipers and discs will physically fit if I bend the back plate out the way but will have no handbrake?

Hand brake will not work because Handbrake shoes are small on 120d. you need custom handbrake shoes. Otherwise everything should bolt up and work, if you cut and bend away the dust sheild

Correct - front only is safe
E87 4 door or 3 door hatch back will need custom hand brake shoes if it is not a 130i
e82 coupe will need hand brake shoes custom and 135i rotors if it is not a 135i (or 123d coupe)
