anybody find a nice cheap pair of red brake caliper covers?i don't really want to paint mine...the only ones i seem to find for cheap are knock off Brembo covers which most definitely are not going to make the cut lol...

Spend the time and paint them. I have painted mine pink, and now I have painted them black, the caliper paint was removed with some muscle and nail polish remover. And then repainted with caliper paint. It'll cost you about 20-30$ish and just take up some time. Spend an afternoon doing it and you'll be done. Mine is sealed with a clear coat and they look great. No bubbling, or anything of that sort.

ahhhh i see.
Yeah mine is a lease as well, but only because my payments are lower this way. ;)
I have intentions to buy it out next year, which at this point thank God, because I've done so many custom mods on mine that would be hell to reverse!
So you can't really see the calipers, but they are black, which the original is just the silver so i suppose by you NOT seeing the calipers, you can tell they're painted... ;)
Ill try and take a better picture this week and post it.
