Hmm. I have the covers sitting on a shelf. Not that I can work on my car right now due to the horrible weather (I don't space to work on my car in the garage, so I always work on it outside). I'm still researching it. To be honest, having seen them in person, they look great. They have a nice gloss finish, and the plastic feels durable. Then again, I'm no plastic expert. Or am I trying to just sell it to myself lol. A part of me says to stay away and get real Brembos from tireconnection this week. We shall see

I agree. I guess some of us would just like cosmetic improvements to our liking. Like APR wings/splitters. I don't race on a track. If I were to get an APR wing or splitter, it would look great, and get lots of nods here on the zpost community, even if I don't use it for its performance, and only have it for it's visual appeal. However, if I install the same APR wing/splitters but the REPLICA version purely for cosmetics as before, I would get grilled. Why?

Just asking
