caliber covers for the g37x??

Hey guys,

I wanted to put in these caliber covers on my black g37x coupe...

4 PCS 3D Style Brembo Brake Caliper Cover RED G35 G37 G37X G50 Coupe 10 5'' | eBay

any sugguestions? its really cheap - could they in any way disrupt anything i currently have?

there are obviously some that i found for 200.. but since its just a cover, thought id try this out..?

any advise?

There is a diy thread in the diy section on how to paint your calipers. If you entertain a thought again on purchasing caliper covers turn in your infiniti keys and go back to a Honda.

not worth it, they actually keep heat in and not perform as they should, MGP looks ugly, and whoever knows would spot those brembos covers right away

Caliper covers look cheap, just get them painted. That is what I am planning to do.

I'm okay with this as long as you put up a DIY, title it something like "DIY: How to make your car look like $hit and get laughed at"
