I thought about painting my calipers, but I thought that these may be a better option...

has anyone every tried em?

 

looks kinda cheap, and i'd hate to see one fall off..

 

Ya that's what i was thinking. although i've painted my calipers before and it gets kinda crappy looking after a bit. If these actually stay stuck on very well, would there be any issues changing the breaks?

 

I wouldn't recommend you getting those. I'd rather paint the calipers. They look sketchy.

 

wow are you serious...

 

Please do not buy these. Just paint your calipers and call it a day.

 

Ya i would probably never install these out of fear that they would come off and ruin my wheels. just wondering if anyone had in the past and had any experiences

 

Or the whole "i've got brembo's" when you really don't...

Paint is the way to go.

 

Well you can buy ones that dont have Brembo plastered all over them. I did some research and some of them are kind of plain, although they don't look too good. I dont even really care about going all that flashy. Just looking for a way to keep the calipers from getting rusty and ugly

 

Just don't do it. The idea of these was brought up at a recent sales meeting at my work. Let me just give you some of the reasons not to do it that were brought up.

*Color fading and looking crappy anyway
*Flying off and damaging/hurting your wheels, car, other people's car, other people
*Limits wheel options (may hit wheels, whereas your calipers painted would not)
*They look tacky (matter of personal opinion)

Those were the main 4 that can be applied to your situation. I'd say powdercoat the calipers locally. Sure it costs a bit more and the car is down depending on how long it takes your coater to do them, but it will look better and IMO be better in the long run.

 

This, poser Brembos make Raptor Jesus cry. Paint the calipers a nice color (ie. not neon green) and you'll have a nice car.

 

 

Those are suspect! Don't do it!

 

just ordered a set.














haha JK


honestly just paint the calipers, cost no more than 15.00 its easy, gives you something to do and adds a nice touch

 

agree with everyone, those are whack! Paint is the way to go, just make sure it's tasteful
