He basically said, "No, you've got the performance calipers already. They're just gray."

Certainly not trying to mislead anyone here. Let me know.
I think there was just some confusion, when he said 'it was not an upgrade' he was probably trying to say that the BMWP calipers are not any higher performing, which is true as they are both the same. The upgrade is that you get the nice looks of the gold calipers and the slot/drill rotors so you are correct in this statement. The parts you have listed are the standard 135i brakes, something a 128i owner may love to have.
