Thank you, but what's wrong with the caliper covers, they are not shaped like bbk, the doesn't say bbk, they are no different than painting the calipers red, except they also function as brake dust shield covers. Plus I wanted to contrast the red to kill some of the black. I love it and I am not posing.

good execution of the murdered out theme. What size tires are you running, the rears look so meaty lol
IMO just paint your calipers red; caliper covers are laughable on a high-end vehicle like the CLS. A company called "G2" makes the best caliper painting products. I've got their Silver metallic paint on my calipers and it looks amazing. I had the Red caliper paint on my previous ride and it really stood out; the paint dries very glossy and very similar to a powdercoat.
But still, if you like the covers, stick with it -but I think you would like how the red painted calipers look if you saw them on your ride.

I have a black cls with the amg sport package and was wondering how it would look murdered out, looks *****in, I'm about to buy 20" wheels and now leaning to the all black theme.
