Now this is getting rice lol While you guys are saying hmm why the hell not its cheap, its going to be more expensive to replace the calipers and rotors when they malfunction from heat. These covers actually retain heat and will probably cause failure to the braking system altogether, why do you think car makers haven't done this yet?

That is most probably true. There is a lot of things I can go cheap on, but this is not one of it. Like I said, I have seen those cover in person... that is a big This thread is called Best Ebay s2k parts...this cover does not fall in that category.
