There are several companies who offer the adapter brackets for the c5 brake conversion.

We offer a set caliper mount brackets that are constructed from Chrome Moly plate steel and are fully TIG welded. These are some of the strongest brackets available on the market and are still reasonably priced.

The brackets can be found HERE

Any questions please ask

Hello
I just wanted to throw this out there for you as another option. UMI Performance offers a C5 Adapter as well! They are a one piece solid aluminum. They are proudly machined right here at our own facility in the USA. Below is a link to show you what all we have to offer!

If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
Thanks
Brad

I'll be buying these in a week and a half from somebody, and almost give myself a headache with each google search. You've got guys that make them and sell them on ebay for seemingly cheap, but then you worry about quality. Brakes are not where I want to cheap out on something. Then you have vendors who's prices range from $149-$250's and sometimes more...some then put a pretty hefty shipping charge on top of that.

So all that I'll say is, right now I'm watching LMP Perf. who has BMR's for...$149.95 w/ free shipping.

I know the UMI piece has to modify the spindles once installed, but does the BMW version? They look like the same adapters, but just making sure.

I would highly recommend BMR or UMI for something like this. You don't wanna to purchase a cheaper non-tested piece for your brakes!
