So what is everyones thoughts and opinions on Brembo caliper covers??
I found some at HP Racing(car shop here) and they are for cavaliers. They are made of good quality and really look nice. They weren't cheap, $89.00.
I know it's far from the real thing but this fits my budget range as of now.They even sell them for mustangs so I figured If they sell them for those kinds of cars they must be good.
So let me know what you think and thanks alot.

why would you want that? thats like taking a picture of your cat and telling everyone you own a lion. if you just flash them the picture they will think its cool but anyone who looks at it for more than half a second will laugh their as off. just my 2 cents

yes, i am actually going to do that myself, it makes it look sporty but does not make it look fake

Ive been thinking about doing that too. I wanted Either lime green or Red. Think it would be ok to just cover everything else with a towel. Or should i actually take the caliper off, just had to re bleed the breaks to put them back on.

I would personally remove the calipers to paint them. Mainly because I would sand them smooth all around and it would be a PITA kneeling down for that long (don't want brake dust/grease/road debris under the paint). It's hardly any work to take them off, and 99% of the time you'll be fine just gravity-bleeding the brakes as long as the lines don't run dry.

i painted mine on the car(I did it for rust protection), however i got some on the calipers and they smelled and smoked something terrible. I used the right paint.. just don't get it on the calipers:2cents:
