Brake Caliper covers (Red)

Post by Triple/R » Wed Feb 24, 2010 4:03 pm

Hiya all---as heading says,saw these on ebay--if you've got an hour to spare reading all the spec--has anyone bought these,if so were they easy to fit,do they look good----one day when i get my new Alloy's i would definitely paint the calipers red,but thought this would be a more permanent look -- what do you reckon??

Don't know how permanent they'd be cos' they're still painted :? - why didn't they just use red plastic? :roll:
I wonder if Brembo know about them :lol: :lol:

If you like this kind of bling... :roll:

They actually look like pretty good quality - ABS (so not 'cheap' plastic), and the finish looks quite impressive; you'd be hard pushed to get your own callipers looking that good, and they certainly won't have 'Brembo' written on them! Feedback is largely very positive too - a few negatives from further back (one was disappointed that they were 'fake' callipers... D'oh!)

If they turn you on...

yeah that's what i thought when i saw them--look quite impressive -- like you say you could'nt paint them as good & i not really bothered about fake or not 8) 8) for that price.
