A question about brake discs

Hi all. I have just bought an M140i recently and have a question.
The car currently has the M Sport blue calipers with all oem parts to go with it. The car is also still under motorplan and under normal conditions, worn out brake discs, pads ..... should be covered according to my understanding.

My question or query is that I really like the look of the slotted and dimpled discs. I am acknowledging that BMW will never replace my discs with these under motorplan even though they have the exact same dimensions and fittings as the original flat ones. Does anyone have any experience about paying the difference in price between the standard and performance options and BMW fitting it for them? This is only for when the discs need to be replaced and not immediately.

It would be silly for me to go buy them at full price just for the looks.

Any help would be appreciated.

An update on this. I could never get BMW to agree. They would only fit what was originally on the car.
I spoke to the sales manager at my local dealership and they gave me a better price though. At the time I did not recognize the brand of brakes called Jurid that they were selling.

I ended up messaging Brembo and getting a full set of brake pads and slotted and drilled discs. Went with EBC brake lines and even though the performance is better they are a bit noisy. Fitted everything just recently when they needed to be changed
