I have upgraded to Stoptech's (thx, Ginger_Extract !) and am selling my BMW Brembo Performance brakes from my 2012 135i M-sport. These have ~90K on them but I recently refurbished them with new Racing Brakes stainless steel pistons with the upgraded dust boots (only two track days and less than 4K miles), so these are definitely a step above the used sets you will find on ebay that are typically pulled from wrecked cars. This upgrade alone cost ~$700.
Thread discussing the upgrade here: https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show...0&postcount=22

Also includes all lines and front caliper brackets.

Cosmetically, they have some expected wear and tear on the painted surfaces, the drivers side front caliper being the worst for scratches/scuffs (for the record, I didn't do the scuff that affects the "BMW" logo, it was there when I got it!). The drivers side rear also has a scuff under the "BMW".

I also repaired a cross-threaded guide pin at one point so there are some scuff marks on the back of that caliper where I dremelled off the head of the pin so I could more easily extract it. See pics below. Structurally it is absolutely fine.

Bottom line: Functionally they are *better* than stock and would be an awesome upgrade for a 128 track car, but they are not "concours" quality if you are buying for the look, at least for the driver's side calipers (nothing a repaint and a couple of BMW stickers can't fix!)

Will include a brand new set of stock (Jurid brand) pads as well so this package has everything but rotors. Am also including one of the little rubber grommets that came with my stoptechs to stop brake lines from leaking while they are disconnected (these things are great!), as well as three spare guide pins I had laying around.

Found a couple of threads on options on how to do the upgrade on a 128i. YMMV.

Bump.

And to be clear, these are not BMW performance brakes right? I was always under the impression BMW performance are yellow. I know everyone says the calipers are the same, but these look like stock 135i brakes based on the paint scheme. Are these the BMW performance part number or the stock 135i part number calipers?

Both yellow and grey are the same calipers

Yes, these are stock 135i grey calipers and are physically the same as the gold BMW performance ones. The color is the only difference.
