Red caliper without painting.

For those who want red (looking) caliper but don't want the hassle of painting. Check it out: Red caliper covers made of anodized aluminum. They also come in carbon fiber.

Nice! Will they fit my 4.8? Costs $235

BavAuto confirmed they fit over 4.4i caliper, not sure about 4.8.

Damn, that's an expensive piece of aluminum

I have a feeling that they will look rather JC Whitney. Perhaps even the equivalent of the look that painting drum brakes creates.

I painted the drums on the beater hot pink.

I'm going to paint Docs calipers doo-doo brown

They look rather ghetto for $235.


I'd be concerned about those things effecting the cooling of the caliper?

As in they look like cheap pieces o' chit... And on a car it would probably look like someone put weird red covers on their brake calipers.
