I know that the front brackets would work for the F01/F02/F07 but Im not sure if the rears would work, or if the electronic brake would work normally too, but since the people with F10 550i didn't use a bracket when adding the F10 M5 rear rotors/calipers but Id like to know how these rear brackets would work for the F01/F02/F07 rear rotors and calipers (and elec. e-brake), see the link below

Was searching around for brake threads and found this lol. I had bought the calipers in that ebay link and learned the hard way. I fitted them on my F10 but the same will apply for F01 etc. The front calipers themselves mount up but will not work due to a design change of the hub. BMW went from 5x120 to 5x112 bolt pattern, therefore the brake pad of the G11 caliper interferes with the hub, it also was not centered on the rotor itself, but a washer or spacer could have fixed that.
On a side note, I am in the process in attempting X5M/X6M front brakes on my F10. For whats its worth, from my testing, it appears that F10, F06, F01 front carrier is the same and all brake components should interchange.
