I need to take a look at those.
The chances of a rear BBK being developed for a 3 or 5 series first..... is much higher than one being developed for an SUV. If they are interchangeable? That would work nicely.
Then there is the question of EPB retrofitting though, which complicates things even further

G05 M Sport are 395x36mm - not 385
The major upgrade here though is pad size - significantly larger friction surface from the 6 pots vs the 4 pots!
Great upgrade!
For the rear, you could look at the 380x28 F90 M5 rear brake set up - I can't see why it wouldnt work since the M5 caliper will have the electronic handbrake mech also and there are no handbrake shoes to consider with the brake rotor fitment. It may need a small bracket to allow fitment of the caliper - but wouldnt be a big issue.
I'm pretty sure Tronik have done it.....
EDIT: yes they have..... 380mm ///M rear disc
