Painting Brakes to Mimic Non-US M-Sport

ThreeTwentyEightI · 12-17-2012, 05:41 PM

Has any one painted their Lease's brakes? I was thinking of getting the Non-US Blue with the M professionally done.

Any issues with the dealer or at turn in?

ya. i would NOT do that. payin for new brakes when turning in a lease would not be a fun surprise. end of story.

you could always just buy the perf brakes or some aftermarket set then sell em when ur lease is up ... kinda costly but probably less so than ur first option

Sad that BMW didn't bring the blue calipers to the US as part of M-Sport or some reasonable bump.
