I've tried to get cost info on replacement parts for the APR system but never recieved anything back yet. I would like to know this as well.

I researched this for my E46 and there is a large disparity for long-term costs between different brands. I chose the UUC/wilwood kit because it uses relatively inexpensive OEM rotors.

The data that I collected told me that pad costs are similar, the rotors make the biggest difference in cost.
