  • Today I give my opinion on if installing caliper covers is cheesy. I purchased the CCI Caliper covers but never installed them. Are caliper covers a cheesy mod or is this mod a good alternative to get that performance brake look? Are caliper covers considered fake brakes? I let you know my honest opinion while also naming the winner to our recent giveaway!

    Not a fan of the covers....I had mine painted, was $700 to get it done plus they installed ceramic pads for me at no cost so no more brake dust!

      I’m definitely going the paint route. I’m going to use the G2 kit. From what I’ve seen that paint is really high quality and pops

    The muscle car community talked you out of doing something that was going to make your car look 10x better. Sounds like that community was hating playa

    They are cheesy if you make them look like a branded big brake kit, but the idea of them isn't cheesy, as they can also help you protect your brake calipers, by preventing water and dirt from getting into them.

    Yes, they are cheesy but if you like it, that’s fine but I like the way you’re going now painting them I have seen that set on cars and it is the best looking set 😊😊🇺🇸🇺🇸

      I agree lol. I had to do a 2nd take and decided I’m just going to do a paint job

    My husband and I have looked at them on Amazon. Yeah, we think not, we're only in our late '50s. We might change our mind in a few years on our 2023 GT ""LAST CALL""
    NOT TRYING TO PUT POLITICS IN HERE BUT OUR CHALLENGER IS THE ""LAST CALL"" BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO EV'S OR WHATEVER THISE ELECTRIC CARS ARE CALLED, SO IN ABOUT TWO YEARS, OUR CAR WON'T BE A
    "LAST DALL" ANYMORE
    LOL
    HOPEFULLY, hopefully......
    WE'LL GO BACK TO THE GOOD OLD DAYS WITH GAS AND COLE AND THIS AND THAT....
    And being conservative/ Republicans, again not putting politics in this, we probably do as much or more than some left or far left people do to recycle!
    Okay, maybe I am throwing politics in there but that's not what I am trying to do!!!!
    Jusy sayin'
    We just won't our gas cars/trucks, so on.
    AND I APOLOGIZE I'M NOT TRYING TO THROW POLITICS IN HERE NOT AT ALL.
    FORGIVE ME IF SOMEONE TAKES IT THAT WAY
    THANK YOU YOU ALWAYS, you AMAZE ME/US.
    WE HAVE LEARNED A THING OR TWO IN THE LAST MONTH AND A WEEK WATCHING YOU.
    I'M GLAD YOU'RE BACK ON FULL TIME
    GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, as always

    Those caliper covers are hella cheesy my dude. Glad you're not going that route. They will fit a Charger, a 300, & a Magnum. 👍🏼
    As for the G2 Caliper Paint, that's great stuff! With the right prep work, it'll look hella nice! 😉 Without the prep, & without letting it dry properly, it's not gonna look very good at all. Big issue is that brake fluid will take it off before it fully dries. When I used it on my previous car, I ended up doing a 2nd coat a few months later. I would highly recommend getting brand new calipers, & painting them instead of trying to paint your originals. It'll look way better if you do.
    In all honesty though, it'd be better if you went with an aftermarket brake kit. Like something from Baer, Wildwood, or R1 Concepts. You'd get better performing brakes, with better stopping power & heat dissipation. Plus they come in numerous colors to choose from. ✌🏼
    Lastly, you need to return that Walmart jack. It won't lift your car high enough to get under it. Plus your car weighs more than 2 tons, so you'd really be stressing that jack.
