Hello All,

I took my car in to have the brakes done Rotors, Pads. I have done pads before but just didn't feel like doing it myself. Anyway the shop didn't put my covers back on the pads. Also the pads are a copper color, I told them to use BMW parts only rotors also. I know BMW pads are black I'm pretty sure. Can anyone tell me if BMW has a copper colored pad. Also does BMW have a mark on thier rotors to indicate its OE. Thanks I'm gonna rip these guys a new one tomorrow.

are you sure the copper color is not a "stop squeel spray" the stuff i use is blue but i think theres a ton of different ones, as for rotors theres usually some kind of markings/part #'s
