Caliper covers

Can anyone suggest a good caliper cover?. I hear some are very nice and others are cheesy.
Wanted to get red to offset all the black out i did to my car. I don't want to paint them.

Your a real tough guy. Picking on a 23 year old girl with the first car she purchased. My dad taught me how to work on cars when I was a little girl. He was a master mechanic. I lost him in the war. He never came back. I'm doing the best I can to honor him in doing what he loved. You seem like a little lonely man. Grow up. If my questions seem sophomoric to you just move on and bother someone else. I'm trying here. Give me a break.

Ok, you're in the wrong forum, this is for c63 only. We will never give you a good response about something as dumb as "caliper covers" because nobody with any sense of self respect would put them on a car, and because this forum only deals with cars that already have a 6 pot/4 pot Brembo setup there's no way to actually use a "cover"

Seriously, if your trying here you need to try in the c300 forum where people might actually have a good response for your paper tiger build.

Nothing wrong with modding your car and wanting to do conversions but we can't help you here in this specific c63 forum

I assume you don’t have a c63 as no one would cover up the calipers on a c63. In general caliper covers are a bad idea as they trap heat and the most important thing for your brakes is that they can properly cool, anything that interferes with that isn’t a great idea.

This. To the OP - you might as well put an AMG badge on a Chevy Cavalier. There's nothing that screams "I have a serious inferiority complex" like caliper covers, closely followed by cheesy engine tunes that make your car fart and bang like a fireworks shop on fire. Get some psych help instead and try to deal with your self esteem issues the proper way.

YES! I hate those pop and bang tunes. Natural pops and bangs are fine but the tunes, even the stock BMW tunes now, are horrible.

You guys missed the post where she already converted the car to a full BS body kit. She totally belongs here now.
