Care has to be taken getting the battery cover off with the fragile cover locking tab in the small opening, easy to break if forced.

Goodbye OEM-pad squeaking and brake dust, hello Carbotech pads!

No squeaking. Minimal brake dust. A win-win, as they say. 👌👊

Same rotors. My M5 has such low mileage, indy said rotors were spotless and didn't need to be replaced or resurfaced.

How do you get the M strips on the front grille? Is that paint, plastic covering, or a special grille?

A while back dealer installed something all over my rear calipers and squeak went away. Has been gone for 2 years. At first the crud they put on it looked horrible but after a while it went away mostly and still no squeaks. Still on original brakes. Car has 38k miles and brakes are almost done so will have to replace soon

You can buy the inserts to put onto your own grill but they don't look nice (kind of tacky). I bought a new grill from JBSPEED that had painted M colors already on it. Fitment was perfect and took like 2 mins to install

I posted another thread but got it dyno'd yesterday On mustang dyno it pulled 509 RWHP AND 494RWT, stock except charcoal delete/drop in oil free filter(if you call that a mod?), and then went straight to another shop and got rear 15mm spacers thrown on. I may reduce rears to 10mm and get 5mm for fronts. Toying now with Open flash tune and Soul muffler delete next.

  • Key Fob battery replacement - seems like a trend lately
  • New Michelin's all the way around
  • Installed Piano Black Interior Trim - I've got a habit of switching things up pretty frequently...
