MGP, why not use a realistic flat bold head, rather than silver paint?
Same question here, I didn't realize the bolts were painted till you said so. I wonder could you drill it out and add your own bolts?

Careful on doing that because the clearance is pretty specific on them adding a bolt head to the top of the cover just might catch on your wheels.

I got a set of these in red new in the box from a guy on line for $100 at that price I could not pass them up. I installed them over the winter and they were easy to do and I like the look. Happy to hear they hold up well from those of you that have had them for a while.

If you want the look of a bolt, just take a bolt and cut off the threads. Then grind the back of the head flat. Then epoxy them in place!

Wala! No more painted bolts

I have a set of covers on my vert, also have a set of brembos in a box that I haven't installed. Not sure if my spare tire will work with the brembos. There is some talk about a spacer?
I also have a complete rear cradle from a SS manual trans with a 3.42 LSD that I need to install. Just don't have time

Agreed, but at the cost of these would expect the company making them to do this? The cheapo ebay BREMBO covers on ebay have dummy bolts but poor reviews with fit. Anyway, will wait for MGP or another to do nicer end product.
