Thanks for all the photos! Huge n00b to BMW's, do you mind me asking why the rears took so long compared to the front? Is it the electronic parking brake?

An hours time doesn't sound bad to replace the front rotors and pads. Any chance you have a write up? I'm due for front brakes soon.

Lastly, does any one know, do we always have to replace the brake pad sensor with every brake job? Thanks!
