JCW Big Brake Kit vs. Sport Brake Kit

Does anyone know if there is a difference between the BBK & SBK for 1st Gen MCS? Outmotoring.com is selling it for $1100 & Morristown MINI is selling it for $578. Are they selling the same kits for vastly different prices? How can I tell?

Thanks!

If the calipers are red with the JCW logo on them, they are the same. Great deal on a good brake set up if it is the same!!!

Yes, they have the JCW logo on them and they are red. Guess, I'll get them from Morristown MINI.

If anyone is looking for the R53 JCW BBK, which is the same as the R56 brakes, I have the brakes, pads, and rotors for sale in the market place under R56 parts. They will not have the JCW logo on them, but will be a fraction of the cost for the same brakes.
