new caliper covers
I drive a 2010 2LT RS Camaro, black with white racing stripe. I was looking at Brembo brake caliper covers, as my current wheels do not go good with the black paint. I have two questions, that maybe someone in this forum could answer: 1) What size (Small, Medium, or Large) brake caliper covers should I get for my car? and 2) Are Brembo brake caliper covers sturdy enough to last me a while? Thanks!

Personally, I think fake caliper covers are just tacky. If you want flash, paint your V6 brakes or upgrade to real Brembos and feel the braking power of those babies.

not a fan of it but you have to admit it looks alot better than stock and for 1/50th of the price of a real brembo kit
some people just want the look and dont want pay the 49/50 of the other cost just so they can brake a few feet less from 60 mph im talkin about the v6 brakes of course if your gunna use those covers at least get bigger, drilled rotors |

Upgrade to the real deal, I did. Best mod so far (springs and sways are a very close second).

Lol I don't think he meant it. Anyways, camarowa do you really think the Brembo upgrade was worth it ? I've had a few people say the brakes on the V6 are nicer than the Brembo's but I just don't see how that could be. Anyways, I'm just wondering If it's really worth it, I don't race and I just don't like the look of the stock Calipers, but I don't want to spend $500 on Brembo's just to have the calipers.

$500 is incredibly cheap from the prices I've been paying. I'm slowly accumulating all my parts and paid $490 shipped for entire front kit and rear rotors shipped. Still having a ton of trouble finding a set of rear calipers.
