Our brake calipers[Akebono] are already very nice,why add a cover to it.?

Maybe his Z didn't come with sport package?

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.

My main powdercoating business is with corvette brakes. I can't tell you the number of customers who have bought those covers, then come to me afterwards saying they should have just had them powdercoated and not wasted their time and money on these cheap things.

So what you are saying is we have cars from a bubble gum machine and that these covers are like diamonds and will increase the value?

Just check the classifieds section. From time to time you will see people selling their sport calipers.
