Default Brembo Caliper Covers

Anyone used these Brembo caliper covers yet? They go on with a silicone glue, not sure how I feel about that. But they sure look cool, wish I had the dough for the real thing.

if they arent metal of some sort I would avoid..

Even if they are, MGP covers are prob alot nicer and made better

I would prob just paint my calipers with high temp paint if my only other option was these things..just my thoughts

MGP caliper covers are definitely the way to go!

i just checked them out, those are
absolutely awful - made of plastic, requires glue! (not included),
and they actually had the ball$ to put "brembo" on those monstrosities and
charge $60 for them!? wow..

these Are cheez at its finest - I would not put these anywhere near my truck (maybe under the tires lol)

will prob melt or fall off
after a day of hard braking

go MGP its worth it - rock solid,
designed to fit your vehicle, quality aluminum build quality,
installed with real hardware not glue, etc

or just get a couple cans of high temp or caliper paint from Pep Boys or Home depot..

+1... I understand the thought in looking for an option beyond $200+ for the MGP's but these faux Brembo covers are crap. If your looking to save some cash paint the oem calipers for sure!

I just painted the calipers of my brother's rig last year and it is holding up well.
