MGP caliper covers

[CL Donttry]

Anyone have any issues with the MGP caliper covers I order mine installed on the front nicely but the rears keep scraping the rotor. I have a fix I need to modify the clips (or elongate the slot for the screw) but I think for $200.00 shouldn't have to do anything. Just wondering if anyone else had an issue with them. I like the quality and the fit and finish of the product on the car they look really great.

Thanks.

I haven't had your issue, however I did slightly bend the tabs on the rears. This made it so that the covers did not slide down and touch the rotor. Never had an issue.

Can you throw up pictures of the covers? I am planning on ceramic painting calipers but I'm curious if the covers will do the trick. There is a guy here that has the covers for his mustang and they are WAAAAY oversized for the wheel and it looks silly.

No issues at all and they look great.  i assume the SHO are the same as the MKS.

Been waffling on tinting my tails for about a year now.  You sir,  just put me over the edge.  That is a BAAADDD MKS you got there.

Does anyone have any straight on closer shots of the MGK covers? I just want to make sure it looks like a beefy brake systems not over sized / unrealistically close to the wheel. I'll send pics of the mustang ones that just don't look right.

Snagged a few photos... Just looks fake and very large...

Gotta agree on that / .

So the question is... does it look that large in the 20" rim? I think with the bigger rims on the SHO we can get away with it.

Behind the 20" wheels I think they are a perfect size.

Sorry guys been very busy I've had nothing but trouble with these covers had to grind my calipers to make them fit and their still rubbing. I'm thinking a may of to install he 3MM spacers on the rears maybe hitting my stock rims and causing the issue. They look great but I've put so much time and effort in these I could of just painted them which I was trying to avoid. LOL

 

[CL Donttry]

Wilson I just noticed your rears look different than mine I'm going have to investigate that's been my biggest issue.

 

[ShoBoat]

Interesting, they are different then mine also?

I think you guys are referring to that beauty that bee615 is driving,  not my car.  I'm don't have caliper covers (yet).

That's exactly what I was thinking but they were marked front and back but I'm going to contact MGP.
