I looked at those before and liked them. What stopped me was the bolts printed didn't quite look right. I always wondered if you could drill out and put a real, fake, screw in. Is there room behind it to put a nut on the back side so you would have a real screw head on the front?

It’s just frost from the cold. It was like 7:00 am in the morning. It goes away once the day starts warming up. It’s also carbon fiber hood. Maybe that’s just the frost pattern it makes? Lol

Looks sharp Lutat! I don't care for them as much on Grandpa's car just because I think he has too much red going on but its just an opinion.... The same reason I wouldn't want white calipers on my white car....

Thats a spiffy looking ride you have there Lutat good job!

I wonder how much hotter your brakes run with those covers. Can't be good for your fluid.

Good thing you didn't put chrome ones on. The drive train probably wouldn't be able to handle all of that power.

Damn, every body must have ordered them at the same time.I bought a set off of here and did'nt look at the "fine print" and they were for a SS and I have a V6.They were unused so I called MGP and told them I bought the wrong ones. Sent them back and they shipped me the correct ones.Great customer service from MGP
