That was actual prices from AutohausAZ using Zimmerman rotors and Textar pads. Both high quality brands, not cheapo eBay stuff. Textar has been one of BMW's OE manufacturers for ages along with Jurid and ATE and maybe others. Zimmerman makes (or once made) OE rotors for Porsche. $477 for the full rotor and pad
