DIY Help: 2004 R50 JCW Brake Kit Questions

Hello,

My sensor light came on, and it is that time. This will be my first time to change the brakes on my R50 since I got it. I wanted to take the opportunity to upgrade my rotors, calipers, brake pads, brake lines, etc. I have found a vendor to purchase the JCW brake kit from. I purchased EBC D939 & D1060 brake pads as well as EBC GD1007 and GD1008 3GD rotors. Will the JCW kit above work with the parts above? I noticed the rotors are not the same size as the rotors that come in the kit. Will I be able to use the rotors I purchased with the kit, or will I need to find an alternative. If I need to, I have the option to return the rotors and brake pads. If so, what would you all recommend?

Motor On!

The JCW Brake Kit includes rotors and pads ... why don't you want to use them?

The kit I am buying only has rotors for the front. They are slotted, but I really wanted slotted and dimpled. I want everything to match.
