Advice needed on M sport+ Brakes f30 335d

Car is on 36000miles and I've been told Both front disks and pads need replacing.
Im surprised they need changing so early and was wondering what mileage everyone else needed them changed.

Also any aftermarket parts that do just as good or best as BMW Douglas Park Glasgow quoted me 850 pounds for disks, pad and sensors?

I really don't want to have to pay that much especially after only 36000miles.

36k miles seems really low for sure. My '08 needed a new set at 60k miles (you might be harder the pads than I was).

I bought 4 sets of Brembo pads + smooth rotors for $800CAD delivered (~450 pounds). 850 seems really high for a 1/2 set. The Brembo's had zero dust, and a lot better bite than the OEM ones ever did. If you're not doing OEM, you'd need to swap the rears too.
