Painted MGP Caliper Covers

Anyone grab a set of these? Looking for photos.

They are basically the MGP caliper covers but painted the color you want.

Can't decide on either black covers with red letters, or red covers with black letters.

I do NOT like the silver letters...

I have actually had the g2 caliper paint in red for 4 months waiting for the summer to paint them but at this point I'd just rather throw the covers on.

On a side note... for those looking G2 caliper paint is the best paint for calipers or other engine parts I have ever used. NEVER loses its gloss finish.

And, for comparison, here's my 2016 Rebel with painted calipers (Duplicolor caliper paint kit). Unfortunately, my caliper covers don't fit on a 17" rim. :(

Sorry, a few pics are sideways....

The ones you have to glue on that say brembo but you don't have brembo calipers?

Glued on or clip on, I think it will save you $190
Because those for $200 don't even look like calipers

These are color matched MGP covers for my truck. I didn't want the screws or writing put on them.

I don't think they are trying to look like calipers, they are caliper covers.
They all but eliminate brake dust from getting on my rims, that alone was worth the price of admission for me. I also think they look great and give rims a bit of contrast behind them :)

i used to have a set on another vehicle.. it was an attempt to convince myself i didnt have to get a BBK.. a month later i had a BBK... lol... but they are quality made, id give them that.. they also do bock brake dust well... If I where to get a set for my truck, i will go body color match.. keep it some what classy.. going all out red or smoe other look at me color, is begging for the " those are not brembos "look
