Sorry after a closer look I thought they were just stock brakes. It's your car! Go with what you like!

In case there's any confusion, I'm fairly sure those are the stock unpainted grey Brembo brakes that come stock on all 335i cars, M sport or not. The confusion comes because Brembo provides all fixed caliper brakes for the F30.

I'm assuming these are not the actual optional BLUE M Sport brakes. American M Sport cars come standard with the same brakes as non-M Sport cars. The optional M Sport brake option has to be checked to get the blue M Sport brakes.

Back on topic, though, I think the color looks really good. Red on black always looks good. If you do add a logo, I'd add the M logo. The reason is because the BMW Brembos have a unique design and I think they match with a simple logo better than the Brembo logo.

Example:
This is what most Brembo fixed caliper brakes look like:


This is what the M Sport brakes look like (these are actually M Perf brakes but they look the same other than color):


Since there is less overall material and the pistons are more clearly defined in BMW brakes, there is less perceived space and adding a big Brembo decal might look a bit off.
