Thanks for the write up Long, I just ordered the Wilwood kit from UUC Motorworks and will be using this for sure. I take it to bleed the brakes I just undo the bleed nipple and pump the brake `till fluid runs ?

Very nice mod and very well written, they really fill up the front wheel opening. In the above photo, note that E92 rotors have a Geomet coating to eliminate rusting on the rotor areas not swept by the brake pads. Another nice little touch on the E92. http://www.metal-coatings.com/mcii/pdf/GEOMET.pdf

BBK's are not necessarily designed to make you stop quicker, but instead allow you to stop quicker more often by generating less heat (more surface area) and disapating the heat that is generated faster (vented).

If you don't pinch the break line you will loose brake fluid and introduce air into the system. If that happens, then you will need to do a full brak fluid flush by bleeding.

keeping it kinked for long periods of time will damage it but pinching it for a lil but wont hurt it. the lines are pretty dense as it is and keep in mind the fluid gets hottt so the line has to be able to take punishment.
