That is bad then. To me they look like the fake plastic ones. Again, get what makes you happy. I myself think painting factory calipers looks better. Ones painted from the factory look even better.


This is good to know. It’s unfortunately a bit too late since I’ve already ordered though.

I personally don’t trust myself to spend the time doing the perfect prep and paint on all 4 calipers and letting them all dry the proper time, etc. I’m sure when I was younger it would have been different. I honestly don’t think enough of the caliper shows with the stock RST wheels that they will be seen as easy as they would with some of the open custom wheels. I guess I can take them off and sell them if I don’t like them.

I added these MGP Caliper Covers to my Black Friday order at Summit Racing.  I installed them this weekend on my 2019 Custom Trailboss.

 

They install super easy and add a bit more of that accent red to the truck.  Thought I would share if anyone has seen them and wondered if they work.

 

The front clearance is very close. Roughly 1/4".

 

Pretty spendy for a "glamor cover", but to each his own... ?

Awesome, I have some on the way. I was concerned that they wouldn't fit because of the big bump on calipers.  But obviously they do. Thanks for the post.  I went with plain red. No design.

This is something I definitely will want to add.... Looking good

Look like OEM 18's to me.

On my second set. They are durable, keeps the dust down, and you can make back your investment when you sell - sold my avalanche covers for $125 on flea bay after using them 4 years so keep the box...cf1230965cedcde36183c1b8f1f4672d.jpg2f9e225f731c92ee9fa3bf5a105aab73.jpg

I’m trying to decide whether I should paint the current stock calipers or go with the red covers for my black RST. 
 
Does anyone have any photos of stock wheels with painted calipers or caliper covers?


Painted mine with G2
