Caliper Covers

mengel

I have the gray base model and really like the look of the red brake calipers. However, I do not like the price of a new set of brakes since I think the ones I have are great. A friend of mine who has a new Camero said he was buying red Caliper Covers for his car. I did a search and could not find any for the 370Z. I was wondering if anyone has seen brake caliper covers for the 370Z. If so where? I really don't have the time or know how to have the ones on the car now powder coated. Any help would be nice. Thanks...

I actually saw some in ebay. They were around 30-50 bucks? for front and back. They were brembo covers (made in china).

But you sure you wanna put those silly things on our nice sports cars?? I'd rather paint the stock calipers with those caliper paint. No need for powder coating. Look around the photo albums and some of the members did some awesome job painting their calipers...not to mention they look great

hehe, for ***** and giggles... I actually bought one of those. Took like 2 months for it to come in from Malaysia -_-' It now sits back home in a drawer. Someday, I'll use it for "best rice" competition at a car show.

I think they are universal. You just have to cut them to fit... if you're serious.

get some G2 caliper paint and paint your brake calipers if you want them red and you dont want to spend the money for a BBK/powedercoating it. It costs about 50 bucks and you can do it yourself.

i did on my altima, it was pretty easy.

it's super rice, they don't provide any functionality, probably get in the way when you have to change the pads. No matter how cool they look, why would anyone want to glue a piece of plastic to their brake caliper?

You could just put on red tinted glasses and look directly at your calipers.

Please don't. If you can't do it correctly, don't do it at all.

+1 on what JeffBlue said.

cheshirecat

I disagree. Unless you have a BBK, you don't need to bring more attention to your baby brakes. If you're going to paint them, paint them black so you can't see them.

Granted, it's your car- do what you want with it. However, just keep in mind that contrasting caliper colors are generally reserved for upgraded brake kits.

Chriz

Not really, alot of stock brakes come in contrasting caliper colors.

If you want them red, or some other color, it's not difficult to paint them. Caliper covers are pretty tacky, and can actually cause cooling problem with the caliper.
