I would also suggest Painting the calipers over getting those covers. Who wants a piece of plastic on the number one safety device on your vehicle, possible getting jammed or gunked with stuff or creating excessive heat.

anyways I have seen people not remove the caliper to paint them, they have just taped everything off. Get some nice high temp high gloss paint :thumbsup:

From experience, my cousin used spray can caliper paint which doesn't appear to last as long or looks as vibrant as the type you apply with a brush. I used the brush type on my 2012 Overland which allowed me to make it more uniform and thick without having to tape anything off. I've attached photos. However this time around on my 14 I went with the aluminum mgp covers :/. One day in the future I will replace those with the real McCoy ;) Alloy wheel Tire Rim Wheel Automotive tire

I'm sorry but I don't understand the covers at all. It makes your brakes look bigger and like brembos even though that's not what you have??? If you want the color or style then pain them but please don't put yourself, your passengers, and other people on the road in jeopardy because you want to pretend to have something you don't. All I can think about is the old river threads with people putting M badges on 3 series and the 240 gang putting silva badges.
If that's what you want save up and get the real thing. No need to pretend to have something you don't.
