MGP Caliper Cover Question (MKS)

I have the MGP Caliper Covers on their way to me, looking to spend some time wrenching on the car the next couple weeks with H&R Springs, Powerstop Brakes and Caliper Covers all coming in and waiting to be installed.

Question: Do these require Wheel Spacers for the Lincoln MKS (20" Polished non-appearance package factory wheels)?
 
I put them on my f150 with 20" rims they fit with plenty of room. they hug the calipers real tight maybe stick out 3/8"
BTW they are MGP's
 
They shouldn't need spacers as they sit right on top the caliper. Follow directions carefully since you will have barely the business card clearance between the cover and the top side of the rotor. It most likely will require adjusting the cover. It can be done with the wheel on, so you won't have to keep pulling the wheel.

Did you ever put the covers on?  I'm thinking about doing the same and would like to see how they look.  Thanks!

yes please!!! I need new brakes - well pads at least, and if I am pulling the wheels to put in new pads caliper covers would be a no brainer!!! PICS!!!!!
 
my '10 didn't need the spacers that mgp sent, but i know some of the '10's did. the spacer was only about a 1/4". this was with standard non-pp wheels. best pic is on my oem wheels. look better on  new wheels with more offset lots of room. i went to them direct as i wanted custom coloring red w/black SHO, their norm was red w/gray
 
Red with black is very sharp.  I think it looks more like a actual caliper and less like a cover that way. I may go this direction if I don't like how mine look after I try G2 caliper paint later this Spring on My Flex EB.
 
actually on oem wheel, i liked but until i went with a more open wheel, it was just nice, but with new open wheels really like them. i could have got by on painting them really as i did my other car as are not very open either. the only pic i got is a long shot.
 
I just ordered a set of MGP covers for my SEL...I got Red with the Ford Logo not the SHO.  I requested vendor send the spacers just in case but I don't think I will need them.  2013 SEL  19" Pirelli Cintaurato P7
 
Took about a month for them to ship but they are finally on.  I think they look great, really break up the all black wheel nicely.
