Hey guys!!! Does somebody have experience with caliper covers?
I'm intrested in the MGP covers. It seems to be a quality product with an easy install. They say it reduces brake dust and most of all they don't overheat the brakes. So even they are overpriced in my opinion I'm still thinking to order them because I really don't want to paint my calipers.

I've seen them and they look like cheap stick on crap (exactly what they are)on every car that has them. You will look like a poser fanboy
:barf:
Please avoid.

Maybe they won't overheat the brakes but still makes them much warmer than they should...

I would never ever mess with my brakes. Paint the calipers if you want, but stay away from this kind of crap!

Same opinion as others.. they appear really cheap plastic covers and I will LOL if I see these on a Mustang (but even on a Fiat Punto!)
Painting calipers is a perfect solution since even on ecoboost we have nice big calipers (at least on the front)

Thanks for the reply's guys!!! I'll keep them off my orderlist. They overpriced anyway.
As for painting, I really don't want to take my calipers from the discs and that's in my opinion the only way to do it right.Maybe I'm to carefull so I will see later. I don't have the right wheels now to show colored calipers:).
