This might be an easier option than painting our calipers. You could always paint these to your specs without messing with your calipers.

The more serious problem is that they look ass! wink.gif

They look like what they are.... Cheap plastic covers. Nobody will believe they are real with the tiny standard disk behind it.

Is that the the GT4 calipers? Did the brake disc have to be re-drill to fit?

ST205 caliper, custom rotor.

full specs will be given out once they are tested and found to be working properly. I don't want anyone trying this out until I'm certain it'll work and be safe.
