I fixed your post. It is clear that you are asking what the alternatives are to achieve the same look as those racy red calipers.

You should get these ones. They even come with Brembo nameplates. You stick them on with silicone glue.

I hear it looks even better if you mix them up and put different colours on different wheels. :rofl:

Stock calipers should only be painted black. They can be red or whatever you want if you have an upgraded big brake. Why would you call out your stock calipers?

Get the G2 paint kit.

You may want to read Post #1. There has
to be a joke in LIONEL1234554321's original post.
At least that's the conclusion that some of us
have reached.........;)

Painting your calipers is the new mod. Its very underrated as a mod, its about 5hp diff. Same with stickers, the new Xoutpost 1s are supposed to be supercharged

lol - thats weir that extra ooomph came from. I painted mine blue to match the car and i love it.

Lionel - don't get covers - paint them if anything. There are shops that will paing for you if you buy the paint. Might cost you though. But it's definitely a doable do-it-yourself MOD.
