I know a lot of people would say 'Rice' because you're dressing your car up to look like it has something it doesn't. But I'm just going to say that $160 is a lot of money for a cosmetic upgrade that makes you look silly.

Better to get Brembo's than pretend to have Brembos... I love mine and if I had anything else I wouldn't want to throw a fake cover on top and be a poser IMHO.

This is the concern above all others.

Good luck whatever you decide to do.

Really? Fake Brembos? At first I was appalled, but then I realized that some people will do anything to appear to be something they're not.

Brembos are not about status. They're about stopping power, and fade resistance. Just ask an unfortunate Mustang owner about that.

Hmmm, I like that part that says to simply glue the covers over the existing calipers. How many do you suppose will use something like superglue on them, not realizing the amount of heat braking generates. I sure hope I'm not around anyone when the "Brembo" caliper covers let loose!!!!
