For those who've done the M5 rear caliper upgrade... Did you use a repair kit for the carrier and caliper i.e. replace the piston, seals, etc?

If so, did you use a repair kit for the 550i (seeing as the M5 and 550i share the same caliper)?

Reason I ask; I haven't been able to source an M5 rear brake repair kit, but can see 550i kits out there.
I did not need to repair as I found a low mileage M5 rear caliper + bracket setup. But the caliper itself should be same as 550i. (All markings look the same on both). It's cheap enough to buy and try and update everyone here. Also real oem has the same inner piston seal ring on almost all F10s
