2008 r56 brake takeoffs - calipers, pads, and rotors (good r53 upgrade)

I am selling these for my friend who upgraded to a BBK right when he got his car. The front brake kit includes - pads, calipers, and rotors. I am not sure exactly how many miles are on them, but they're practically new.

According to the r53 folks, the r56 brakes = the r53 JCW brakes, except they're not red and don't have the cool JCW logo. I will post pictures of the brakes and rotors when I get home tonight.

$380 picked up.
$420 shipped
(these things are very heavy - 50lbs)


Price Reduced to:
$330 picked up.
$360 shipped
(these things are very heavy - 50lbs)

They are takeoffs... so I would guesstimate less than 100 miles.

Are any modifications needed? Is this a bolt-on swap? I'll be needing new brake pads soon - perfect time for a brake upgrade...

More pics of the rotors... Although the rotors may seem rough, they are smooth and feel uniform throughout. Someone PM'd me and commented they have grooves, but to the touch, they really do not. I hope these pics show that....
