are they any red brake shoes tht can be fixed on the original r56 brakes? with the JCW logo?

 

Counterfeit JCWs....almost as bad as the kid with the MINI who did the counterfeit Brembos (stock shoes painted red with Brembo decals) and was brave enough to post pics here in NAM

 

Brake shoes?
Do you mean "pads" or "calipers" ? (the part that holds the pads)

i just want a cover that turn the brake pads to red

 

You can buy red paint caliper paint at most auto parts stores. Do it yourself. It's the cheapest way to go red unless you want to upgrade to AM calipers,

 

YES.. there is a JCW red caliper and rotor set for the R56 worth around $1,360.00 MSRP Part No: 34 11 0 420 903

But the R56 has the same brakes as the R53 JCW MINI.

OR you can get the slotted drilled rotors from the JCW R53 and they fit as OEM on the regular R56 and '06 GP models.

The rotors made for BMW are softer material thus the great brake feel on our MINIS out of the box and thats why we have to have "simple green" at hand everytime we wash the MINI.

 

Maybe something like these might work?

Man, you can get anything on Ebay!

 

Holy crap. There is more broken English on that listing than I have ever seen in my life!

"YOU ARE BID ON 2 PAIR OF BRAKE CALIPER COVER"

"Why you? pay more than $2000-$5000 for upgrade your brake caliper
to Big brake kit if you can pay only $80-150$ for change your brake
caliper to Racing big brake kit by use Big Brake Caliper Cover Kit."

"Real Material Surface, It's Great Beauty."

 

so, can i get a JCW R53 red caliper and fit it onto a R56?

 

If you like to spend the cash, but the stock R56 brakes are basically the same as the R53 16 inch JCW brake kit that came on the GP.

I would paint them red and get the JCW rotors, which are OEM compound.

 

paint kits are normally like 40 bucks.

spend like 1k and get the stoptech big brake kit!

 

Go for the Brembo GT Big Brake Kit

 

You brake look hot like this one too! With super likey brake pad upgrade! Make even rusty brake stop like racecar!

 

Its not english its engrish

 

That must be the Blembo Big Blake Kit

 

I should not be LMAO at your comment 'cose I have an accent BUT it's hilarious!

 

are harsh, even a little funny. .

Dubaian, since the R56 brakes are the R53 JCW per the above posts, get some caliper paint in red and go for it. If you want more stopping power, get rotors noted in the above posts.

I would not put on works or brembo stickers (fake is fake), to many cynics around here, but they mean well, I think...

If you have a lot of $$$, go for the real thing, the JCW for the R56 when it becomes available.

Let us know what you do for big brakes, I think my R56 stops very well asis.
