Brembo brake caliper cover

ericphoto · 07-17-2005, 05:38 AM

I want to buy these covers.
This is $100 US for 2 covers.
What do you think about these covers?
Do you wanna recommand or it is just a garbage u think.

fredtoo · 07-17-2005, 08:16 AM

Caliper Cover?

If this is not a joke, it is the biggest waste of money I ever heard of.

siriusinvestor · 07-17-2005, 10:13 AM

haha this is like buying a fake designer bag from downtown manhattan. You buy item with the name on it but, it's really an imitation.

E90Fleet · 07-17-2005, 10:32 AM

Good way to screw up the calipers cooling

JVFan · 07-17-2005, 10:59 AM

It would kinda be like putting a roundel on my old Jetta. Want Brembos? Buy a S60r....

ward · 07-18-2005, 12:20 AM

I think those come standard with the fist shaped seat option package

NaTuReB0Y · 07-18-2005, 01:03 AM

That's like badging on a 330i emblem on a 325i.......

Are you crazy.................

ericphoto · 07-18-2005, 02:28 AM

only negative opinions -_-;;;
There is no way to spend $5000 on brembo!
As long as I don't care of the performance, would that be cool enough?
I think this will be better than paint on my own caliper.

That's like your girlfriend carrying a fake LV or Chanel purse or fake boobs! Well, the latter isn't that bad

You should have bought a G35 with Brembos...At least you're getting the real thing.

On a serious note, please don't do it. You are seriously going to overheat your calipers with those covers.

fredtoo · 07-18-2005, 06:25 AM

Just for grins, who is selling these?

onesixeight · 07-18-2005, 07:01 AM

You can get them on ebay. Basically, you can stick whatever logo you want on them, ///M, Harge, Alpina, Brembo, AP, Alcon, etc...

Mark · 07-18-2005, 07:05 AM

what an absolute waste of time...

ericphoto · 07-18-2005, 01:20 PM

alright guys.
I give up -_-;

Pretender · 11-14-2006, 03:56 PM

Look good tho.
Would I buy 4 of them for
$40? Yes.
$400? Hell no.

FirstClass · 11-14-2006, 04:10 PM

Rice.

Why the hell would you be a huge poser and buy brembo brake covers?!?!?!

mikem · 11-14-2006, 04:16 PM

Your stocks are a completely different shape, so the covers wont be big enough to cover it all. It would be like a guy wearing a tiny g string - JUST WRONG

Or you could leave the calipers the fvck alone and not mess with them.

Why do people paint stock calipers?!? Why? Why bring attention to the fact that they're not upgraded?

There's cheaper options besides Brembo btw.

nmulax · 11-14-2006, 05:39 PM

no

Maybe painting them black is better than seeing rust!

shragon · 11-16-2006, 10:06 AM

hahahaha, i remember seeing those before. good luck.
