One sympathizes. On a separate note, has anyone painted their calipers? And does anyone know where I can source the M caliper decals?

Nothing more complicated than that.
Yeah whatever, I just wanted them on and to help other ppl who don’t have them on and want them get em.

Mine only had front ones when I took delivery. I think it helps get the weight distribution 50/50.

mine did not come with them (2024 October build) I bought a set installed them, and 1 of them fell off after 15 miles, took the other one off for now, may put some glue or some beta link adhesive where the clip touches the caliper to hold it in place

As far as the brake noise, isn’t there a procedure to stop the noise squeal?

In case the OP is still looking for a set of these covers, I think that stripped out M3 from NJ that’s on the street in Cali still has them on the back brakes just ripe for the picking. 😂
