Incidentally, did you also look at AP Racing Radi-CAL BBK? What was the criteria which led to Brembo buying decision?

Never looked into AP Racing, not too familar with them.

Just went the tried and true path, I've had about 8 different sets of Brembos never had an issue and love the brake feel.

I thought the blue M-Sport brakes were Brembos?

Don't see why are you confuse here, it is pretty straight forward. As the article said Brembos company supply BMW brakes. BUT, that doesn't mean they are all the same. They are a lot options to upgrade too. Just saying that BMW brakes are made by Brembos.

Nice looking brakes! Looks even better than M3's carbon ceramic brakes.
