i know you can get refurbed calipers on an exchange basis from euro car parts for around £45 each.

Don't know how bad they are or why you need to refurb them but BMW do a repair kit which includes new seals and dust boots for under £10 a side. Suppose it depends whether you want to spend money or energy.

Theres a thread where a guys doing up his touring (thread by old_skool_2002) and theres a post about in it about the caliper reseal.

Meant to be a p.o.p. just watch out when using compressed air to blow the pistons out!

Have a look and save yourself a few quid.
