Or the OE ones, if anyone can get the part number. Member turbowolfe told me he was able to get new replacements from his BMW dealer but unfortunately misplaced the part #.



Below the phenolic nose, the BMW piston material is aluminum.

How are the Centric seals working with the RB pistons so far? FuelTech or OP?
I got the seals from Carlson. All Calipers have been rebuilt but I haven't rebled the system yet. Will do it this weekend and report back to see if the Seals hold up. I did keep the BMW Seals also, and they look to be of equal quality to the original BMW ones, so only time will tell. I'll update as soon as everything is back up.
