Im confused..the indy will put in aftermarket parts. They say "OEM"...and you think OEM is BMW..but their OEM and your OEM are different.

OEM is the manufacturer that made the OE pads...it has drifted to now mean "anyone that once made a part for a BMW". So you say "I want OEM" (thinking I want BMW) and they nod and say "We will give you pads and rotors made by a company that made pads and rotors for new cars once".

My opinion. It is a point that you should clarify

I like centric parts.

Im a nut about OE parts- EXCEPT for brakes- it is a waste of $$$ imo.
