Eh, no thanks. I'm actually surprised at how much positive feedback this has got in this thread so far. I'd rather spend the time and effort to paint the actual calipers. Looks way better and costs way less. The covers look fake and anyone that knows what to look for can tell.

I bought them for the Stang but can't install them until spring when my stock rims go back on. I'll see how they look on the car, and if they look stupid I will sell them.

I would never in my life put those on my ride. They look cheap, they look fake, and they look "tacky"(to steal a word from my Grandma). No offense to those who own them or desire to. I would much rather spend the $30 on a G2 kit and paint them. Then get stickers from Kel and put them on my calipers before spending $200 for those. Then use the $170 left over to add to the intercooler fund.
