My cheap side says, cool look, better than paint.

A company called mgp or something like that made some for my old car a 08 Charger and they were pretty nice but ehhhh. Nothing beats the look of a big brake kit from Baer or such. I think if your running 24's or bigger and you paint your stock calipers your just bringing more attention to how small they look compared to your wheels. just my 2 cents

i have some caliper covers stamped brembo and they look better than paintng them. The covers dont cover the entire caliper so it will be a good idea to paint the rest of the caliper to match

As you can see in my sig, the color b4 the caliper covers was blue. Next week i will pull off the wheels and paint the rest of it red

I think the covers look pretty good, but all the ones I have seen are fu*king expensive. I cant get myself to spend $190 on covers

Ya those MGPs are probably the best ones out there but they are a little expensive. I still wouldnt paint stock calipers IMO

Tim, those look good. I have to say that the "good" caliper covers are NOT GAY! I would love to have some red ones if they were'nt so much $$$

I got them for $160 delivered. I got them from carid.com. You can use VOTE10 for a $10 discount or if you want I can help you with a military discount which is 10%. Just PM me and let me know.
