Be very careful when doing the fluid change or a trip to an indy will be in order. Don't let the master cylinder run dry. I swapped mine for ATE Blue during my brake job. I always alternate between gold and blue so I know when I get a full flush through each caliper.
Good call on the fluid - very clever. I have high hopes for BrakeMotive and, all going well, will swap my 750il to them also.

I also picked up paint for the calipers though it's going to be too cold to do it for a while. Color should be close to BMW fire orange. I wasn't thinking of your gold calipers at the time but one more step to half-twinsies.
