There has not been a group purchase. We did not have enough members committed. We had interest from the membership, but only a couple actually committed. We needed to have at least 5 sets (front and back) 10 total for the blanks to be produced. Sorry guys I was hoping this would work out.

These have been used in other vehicles not just X5 with good success. This is a company that makes racing level pads using in big time roadracing. They know what they're doing.

The compound is available and was always available that is not the issue. The backing plates are not available this is why the GB was initiated we needed to have the backing plates manufactured. I just spoke with them this morning.

The E70 pads show up in the Carbotech with part numbers. Figured they were out.

No they show up, but they are not available. You can send them your old pads and they will fit them with the compound.

I'll take a set of fronts and a set of rears if that helps anyone...
