BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

This brake package for the 2001-2006 BMW E46 M3 ZCP (Competition Package) comes with everything you need to perform a major brake overhaul -

Front and rear rotors with hardware - Genuine BMW replacements
Front and rear brake pads - OEM organic, street performance, mixed track/street, or full race
Front and rear pad wear sensors
Brake fluid - DOT4 street or DOT4 racing fluid

Our brake package uses the same replacement parts from the same manufacturers as BMW dealers use to service your car. The big difference is that we're able to offer these parts for a substantial savings from the dealer markup price. As an independent company we're able to buy our parts from multiple OEM suppliers whereas BMW dealers must buy their parts from BMW. We're able to shop from different vendors which gets you a better price while still maintaining original quality. You don't have to pay high prices at the dealer to get the same quality and performance!

In some cases, we offer performance alternatives to the OEM items. For an enthusiastic BMW owner, the standard BMW part may be inadequate and we offer an upgraded part, based on our almost 20 years of BMW tuning experience. We seek out high quality suppliers and designs that we would want on our own vehicles. Many times performance parts will fix a design flaw with the original BMW part, improving your performance at the same time.

This kit is a direct replacement for the standard floating and cross-drilled 345mm rotors in the ZCP Competition Package. This is brake overhaul for the ZCP and will not work as an upgrade for non-ZCP unless the ZCP front caliper brackets are used. We offer the full E46 M3 ZCP brake upgrade on the website here (click).
