Just saw your new Z4 side profile photos with the upgraded brakes. Looks good in the yellow as the BMW Performance Brakes

I've read that the rear electronics parking function is lost with after market brakes so did you manage to overcome this problem? Can you still engage the factory parking brakes?

Thanks again!
When stopped, the car is firm and does not roll if in "P": the "P" position of the DCT keeps the car away from movements independently of the hand brake.

The e-brake lost could be a problem in driving emergencies... Anyway, I have been driving around for 26 years and never used the hand brake in such a kind of situations...
