certainly looks a lot better than a 4-5 stud adaptor with a bolt missing
still not going to be cheap by the time you factor in two new bearings, plus calipers disks and pads.

Try finding some e46 330i/d callipers for a normal price 
Meyle discs are about 80 quid.

That doesn't look like a bad kit to me! Certainly solves a lot of the brake problems with custom hubs costing hundreds more!
I would like to see the inside of the outer bearing sleeve, it looks like it screws on to the stub on the stock strut and the M14 bolt locks the whole lot in place (and doesn't take the load).
