they look easy to clean..but u need 2 pair equalling $120

it makes the caliper look smooth too...i kinda like. if i got them i probably would paint the outside edges of the caliper too.

I think they look pretty sick, I just wouldn't want the tape to fail and have them come off at high speed, and jump up and damage the car.

the ad says something about 3m high heat bonding made exclusively for this product..but u never know..it looks like it will be OK tho..i might get them..i just gotta think about it. if i see them starting to come off..ill use some silicone.

I was very insterested when I first saw them a few month ago. I emailed the seller and asked whether they had to come off when changing brake pads, if there was any chance of warping the rotors due to increased heat, and if they could cause any possible issues with warranty. Never heard anything back, so I took that as a sign there might be issues...

those wouldnt work on my car, because my rims have accutually been notched out in the back to make room for the rear calipers. This is the only way that Asanti can get a true 5 inch lip on the rear for the 300. I only have about 1/4 of an inch of space between the caliper and the rim.
