Caliper Covers

Has anyone tried the Cal- Covers make by these people?( WWW.CAL-COVERS.COM) They are placed over your calipers and held on by some high heat adhesive. THEY CLAIM NO MORE PAINTING!

Thumbs down Painted mine...

Would never cover something that gets as hot as a caliper, would be afraid of brake failure...

Thought

Thats what I am wondering myself. Hot brakes don't work well the last time I had some on anything. Might have to paint the cal. Wheel has to come off to install the cal-cover anyway.

www.eastwood.com has caliper paint. Most auto stores might have it. If you have the time ...have them powder coated. PC looks good forever.

The brake Caliper Covers I sell allow air to flow through the brake, and are much better quality than those your looking at, I saw them at SEMA this year!
The force of air flowing while your moving will cool your brakes with these covers, they only cover the front!
