Off topic, need advise S90-V90

My 2003 BMW just flashed the -Check Brake Linings- script across my dash display.
Just over the 50k warrenty where the dealer would have had to take care of it.
Dealer wants 1400 bucks to change the brakes and rotors out.
The question is-where do I go for parts like rotors and shoes for this ride other than the dealership-I don't need high performance just good quality replacement parts. Oh yeah, there's somekind of electrical sensor that sends the siginal to the onboard computer that tells when these parts are getting near the end. I found a website that shows me how to over ride the sucker-should I replace the sensor(I do check things like this myself) or over ride and go on.
Cars now out of warrentie for brakes and normal wear items-engine and tranny and diff have another 50k warrentie.
Thanks to all
Poolman
