He's supposed to be some kind of BMW specialist too, with a mural of a M2C he owns on the side of his building. Time to find a new mechanic I guess. Such a bad experience, he had a 4 1/2 star rating on Yelp.
Just to be sure, you might want to pull a rear wheel off and make sure the pad on the back side of the rotor looks the same as the one you shared a photo of. Not sure how much that mechanic is charging for labor, but here is the cost of parts…
