17,389/83,600 = 20.8%. So a bit over 20% of the MSRP of the car for just the replacement brake parts...add in a couple of wear sensors and DIY labor plus buy discounted for maybe $14k. Still pretty pricey DIY brake job.

These are for the F8x parts, but I'd assume they're similar. I did a quick check of FCPEuro's site, and they show no hit on the CCB rotor part number. Their lifetime free replacement warranty is fantastic, but they're not crazy enough to offer the CCB rotors it appears.

But lets not discount that the CCB rotors will last MUCH, MUCH longer than regular steel rotors - even on track - they are not fragile pieces of hardware

I bet with just street driving, the CCBs may even last the life of the car...
