What exact pads did you switch to? Did you do front and rear, or just front? What about the TPM sensor? Do they seem as strong and great at the OEM factory brakes (horrible brake dust, awesome performance)? Does this affect warranty at all?

And since brakes and rotors are free under the 4yr/50k warranty...how much did the brakes cost, and installation? Also, since you added aftermarket, non-approved BMW brake pads...what will happen when you need rotors? I have a feeling BMW will not want to pay for your rotors, since you "micky-moused" with the brakes, and put aftermarket pads. Hmmmm..... I love free maintenance, but dust free pads would be so nice.

How much less is the brake dust? 50% 100%??
