Brembo brake covers

Recommended Posts

anyone know much about putting the ebay available red brembo brake pad covers? i was considering as would look cool. But things im considering is i) heat issue, ii) glue falling off ii) would the covers rub against 18" wheels as i saw the wheels are real close to the brakes.

Dude, maybe it's the beers I've just had, maybe it's that lateness of the hour, but I cannot help but think that stick on brembo covers just fail on so many levels... I mean, it's a bit more subtle than a sticker list of aftermarket car brands on your door, but it still fails.

Just my 2c, but the money can go on better things...

I thought brake uprades were for performance, not looks?

I must be getting old <_< .

We've had cars come in for brakes with them on...it can take longer to get them off without breaking them than it takes to do the brake job.... we will not refit them... end of story

Most have come in with a tube of urethane under each one... I'm not going to tie up a hoist for a day waiting for the stuff to go off

Speaking of which, where do I get a tube of urethane from?

My plans don't involve bits of red plastic, honest! :P
