I understand these 'M' pads are standard as part of the Competition Package, or as retrofit items on normal cars. They are made by Textar for BMW and are not available as an aftermarket equivalent. The only sensible alternative I could find was a Pagid RS29, but this is not really suitable for road use, and would invalidate my warranty,. so I went with the M pads.
Interesting. I show the OEM part numbers are the same (maybe just a US thing?) regardless of Comp or not... 34112284869
