Break caliper covers on 20 inch

[paml3]

I received my new SR+ a few weeks ago, and I really want to get the red caliper covers. I see loads of them on Amazon, but they are all for 18 and 19 inch.

I have purchased and installer new 245/35-20 with 20 inch rims. Have anyone tried, or found any caliper covers that fits a 20 inch rim?

Brake or break?

just paint your brake calipers. Auto part stores sell a lot you brush on.

I just painted mine, was super simple. I was going to do covers but idk, just thought it was one more thing that could break and given that it’s near my wheels and braking system it seemed like a bad idea. I know plenty of people have them and have never had issues but was just thinking long term I guess. Going to post a video on how to do it (there are tons out there) but you can see them here

I was hoping this was only a tacky American trend.

I got the 19” version on my 20” wheels and it’s nice

How did you paint the Tesla lettering so perfectly?

Ah. Thanks.

Ah. Thanks.

Where did you get them?

Where did you get them?

That are regular stickers I got on eBay, paint the calipers red with hi-temp caliper paint, apply stickers (search for brake calipers decals) then apply a hi-temp clear gloss over the calipers with the stickers on and walaaaa

Thanks very much. Yours look beautiful.

Thanks, I only did 2 coats of red and two coats of gloss on each, total cost was about $30.00 which is way cheaper than the $175 covers but to each their own, I do think the covers look nice and are super easy to put on, especially if you have a lease.

Please don’t get covers, they are tacky. Just paint them.

Thought I’d share the video I just finished on painting the calipers if it helps!
