This place sells them but they list only up to 2005 - I'm not sure if they changed the brakes on the 06-07s. I so want these for my 03 but I'm afraid I'm not going to have enough clearance and I don't like the idea of wheel spacers. I bought a similar set from this company for my Stang. Probably going to install those in the spring when I switch back to my stock wheels.

I was gonna post the same ones Amy posted. I think they look cheap and are way overpriced. I seen them at a show last year. I would paint the calipers using duplicolor caliper paint or the G2 brush on kit. They both look great. Just remember prep is very important.

Prep your current calipers good and get a Duplicolor brush on kit!

Please don't put Brembo covers on your non-Brembo calipers.. You're guaranteed to get plenty of crap for that kind of modification.

I think they look best painted with a monte carlo or chevy decal. But if you want covers, go for it. At the end of the day it will still be your car, not ours

They did. The caliper is much larger and dual piston.
