I have a set of E39 M5 brakes lying around that I want to put on my bug in the near future.

Hi guys sorry for taking a while to reply.........

The brakes are off a '99 E36 and were an absolute steal!!! All the brackets and machining is now done and they're all fitted up and just waiting to be bled............. they 'should' stop me pretty well!

Justdubbin you're spot on about the hidden hinges 'got them form Mike Leche at M7 ........ 5 years ago though, and I know that Mike isnt making them anymore........... too expensive to make apparently. Never mind.

Troy,

I've no idea what an Airspeed Lid is My decklid is a one off STEEL '55 with the 'eyebrows' grafted in, I think it looks quite good!

I'll PM ya with the answers to the other Q's
