If you do not have to have a name brand set do what a lot of us have done. Find a junk yard that has a set of R56 front brakes. You will need the calipers and carriers and a set of R56 front brake lines. Good time to add the stainless steel lines. It is a very easy swap. Go to the Forums under the 1st Generation section in the brake are and search BBK. I just finished mine. I love it. The R56 came stock with the R53 BBK. I painted mine red and added JCW stickers. I can't figure out how to add photos or I would post photos.

Forgot, you will also have to add a set of R56 rotors.

ahh, i would prefer some brakeman OR wilwood calipers though, i looked into the r56 upgrade and for my application i dont think it would be worth the trouble. I already bought the ss braided lines, actually putting them on this weekend
