just an idea, but u can get cali[er covers on ebay, i dunno how cheap they look or how long they last etc, but its worth alook i think

get black RS ones to go with ur car :) would look nice

but then again paint can be cheaper, depending on ur taste i suppose

^^ Them caliper covers look really gash and you should stick to what your car is. If you upgraded to proper Brembo calipers just say then 8) If you put covers on to make it look like you have then everyone will just laugh at you!

It's a bit like fake spinners; DON'T DO IT :mrgreen:

Black or dark-grey, because flashy coloured calipers is way to f*cked up to look at (it aint a Honda is it? :roll: :wink: )
