Larry actually mentioned the same thing, that they are very similar to the m3 pads.

Default Nicely done!
Your photos cleared-up my somewhat cryptic explanation. I totally forgot about the dust caps on the caliper pins.

Good job!

Default So what's the status on the aftermarket pad clip issue?
Looks like you put the OEM ones back in...

Let's just say that is a "work in progress" situation.

Great write-up! Worthy of AW tech article, IMO.

The rust coloring is just the dust from the rotors. It can be scrubbed clean.
