Unless the car was retttrofitted witg the jcw bbk kit....
It was an option (2005+ if i remember right), bit many cars got them later...the gen1 JCW brakes are the same as gen2 std brakes....
You can tell which calipers/rotors you have (ignore the color) by looking to see of you can see tetaing springs on the outside....if you do, they are stock gen1 brakes.
Somebody just posted a great pic here a few days ago showing the visual differance for quick and easy identification.

the retaining "clip" for basic GEN1 calibers.
Larger JCW clibers, either the Brembo kit or the later MINI ones (same as on GEN2) cars do not have this clip which can normally be seen through the wheels
