OEM "BMW labelled" Calipers Spotted ...
Hi Guys,
I spotted a convertible M3 on the highway (out of province plates) with "BMW" written on the front calipers. I then looked at mine to find a grey peice of steel ... Anyways, does BMW make bigger brakes for our cars? or different calipers? The caliper I saw looked like aluminum, but I couldn't tell for sure. Any input is appreciated. |

I'm kinda wondering how soon we will see someone try to put the new M5 brakes on an M3.

Something like that, but if I recall it said M3 on them, but I could be wrong. They were on the front though.
Anyways, the pictures above, is that a sticker or and upgrade? |

That would be kind of interesting. Those front calipers are huge.

Well, technically the first pic I linked was his M6, this second link is for his m3.

Just painted stockers. Most will agree that it looks terrible.
