yo jessep, I painted my calipers..
if you want i can help you paint yours since we live in the same city.
mine looks nice, but they could look even better with a power coat

You could easily paint your calibers in under an hour for like $5.

if your gonna get cover's at least get the "brembo" looking ones, thoes are ugly, but painting is still the way to go, unless your gonna replace your calipers for the real deal.......just my 2 cents

It's a novel idea, but I wouldn't spend $190, or even close to $190 for these. I might drop $50 on a set of 4 for the sake of saving on the work done vs. repainting my calipers. No way I'm spending 4 times that much.
**EDIT: Save that, they're held on by the always awesome '3M Tape'. I wouldn't spend $5 on these.
