Do these require different rotors from the stock ones? I have a '06 JCW (dealer installed), that doesn't have the JCW brakes...

How's the overall condition? Approx mileage on the parts?

Yes - I believe the stock rotors are 276 x 22 mm. They will require 294 x 22 mm rotors that has options of plain or cross drill slotted face from the dealer as well. The condition rating is an 8 of 10 and was pulled at 121K miles.

R1 Concepts make a great replacement rotor/pad/hardware kit for the 294mm JCW brakes. I have it on both my R56-S and my R53 JCW. And they are inexpensive...

OMG!!! That is ridiculous!!!

No R1 Concepts is different company. I'm sure they could make something custom for you like that though :p

They aren't cheap stuff. Just cost efficient / inexpensive. At least in my experience they have been. And there are always coupon codes floating around.
