Hey guys is it true that if you install brembo brakes on rear wheels of F10 i heard the hand brake won't work anymore?i mean the E-brakes won't work anymore?

It is true! Our rear calipers have the e-brake built in, so if you replace them with Brembo or other BBK's, the e-brake wouldn't function anymore.

The best bet is to look up the F10 M5 rear calipers/rotors. They should have the e-brake built in and would be an easier swap for us to retrofit. We just have to find someone (LTBMW) to make us custom brackets for the front and/or rear.
