Caliper Covers

Check out a company called MGP, out of The San Diego area. They sell make and sell caliper covers. I saw these in Vegas at SEMA. I have a set ordered and I will have them painted to match my Dark gray mettalic stripes (on Imp Blue) They are eay to maintain and will keep you rims a little cleaner and help your brakes run cooler. It will be a bit after I get them to get them painted and labeled and installed, but I will try to post some photos.

I demand you do this and I need pictures ASAP!

Chris, you did yours in orange correct? Is that IOM, or just G2 orange?

Also, did anyone with an IOM car go with glossy black for the calipers? If so, can you post up some pictures?? Thank you!

I did mine in G-2 IOM color match. Some pictures have brake dust on them which make them look a little darker.

Aby, where can I get a pair of those leg warmers you are wearing?

It's getting cold out west!

Inferno, you almost can't mess it up, just feels like it during the process, kit is awesome.

Only issue is prep/masking and carving out the four+ hours to getter done...
