MGP caliper covers?

Here's mine. The stock/ base brakes work just fine for me, but they are fugly naked. I wasn't going to drop big bucks on new calipers just for the look.

OMG.. I feel secondhand embarrassment that you have these on your car.

They're tacky like white tube socks in dress shoes.

If you choose to step up your caliper cover game, they got Nismo and Brembo covers available.

Default Brembo Covers

You could paint the calipers.... but dont use those covers... They are just sad IMHO...
Here is a blurry Picture of my Brembo Big Brake on my Z.
