Carpenter how do you install those caliper covers? And do you think red would look to gawdy or on my all blacked out Suburban or would you do black. I have been thinking since I bought it a month ago about red calipers but have been hesitant.i don't think red would be too much do,you? Thanks

I never understood the caliper covers. To me, it's the same as adding a bright badge that says "turbo" when there isn't one.

I like it Brian T! To me it makes it look slicker on all black Suburban but some might not like it. That's why we have this forum you do what you like to me that's all that matters . Thanks Brian

The covers look a lot better than the ****** stock calipers and in my opinion painting them makes matters worse. So the whole "turbo" decal and no turbo installed theroy doesn't really apply here.
i would never purchase a set that mis represented the product that's installed on my vehicle either. Like for instance the knock off brembo covers now that's trying to hard.

I think black caliper covers look decent. They just hide the crappy OEM parts. I would not do a colored cover. Just black to keep it low key and look better IMO
