Caliper Covers with Gemini Wheel Caps?

[HeyEph]

Do you think these would be visible at all through the Gemini caps?

Caliper Covers for Tesla Model Y

Anybody do something like this with the Gemini caps already?

 

[yeee666]

it will not. you have to remove gemini cover.

 

[Y_NOT]

Oh god. Why would you even consider getting those...

Look at the last photo on that page. It has the caliper cover with the Gemini wheel with the cap on. It's visible, but not much.

For the price, I would rather have it professionally painted. While at it, I would also powder coat the Geminis.

Isn't painting them MUCH more expensive? And, requires an overnight stay? This seems very convenient and, IMO, they look pretty nice.

What do you mean by power coat?

Powder not power. Google it.

I found a place that painted the calipers and powder coat in a full day. Painting calipers were $300.

They don’t make the covers in Blue to match my blue Model Y, so I am waiting, I have the red covers on my Model 3 SR+

 

[Wennfred]

I need the blue ones here;

Stupid. You can get them painted for the same price or less lol

I got all 4 of my brake calipers painted for $250. Think about that.


And no. They basically dry right away. Guy that did mine literally came to my house and painted them in my driveway. Drove my car next day, 12 months later they still look brand new no chipping.

Those look fantastic! I keep waivering on dipping the covers versus powder coating the wheels. I don’t think I can go wrong either way but can save a ton by dipping. Seeing yours gives me pause, though.

Are those the M3 caps?

Painting calipers is a simple process. Find a you tube video, doesn’t mean you will do it yourself, but at least you’ll understand the simplicity of the process. Basically, lift the car, tires off, protect the car from paint spray with plastic and tape. Prepare the calipers for paint. Spray paint (need the right stuff). Spray again. Dry. Put labels on. Tires back on. Over 350 dollars is too much

Yes, some generic caps from amazon. The 3 will fit the Y.

Did they put the Tesla logo on those for you, too?

 

[Donaldinc]

Yes, it came with the Tesla logo.

Could you please share where?

Caliper envy. I have it too...

I was quoted $400 in the San Francisco Bay area. But if you have your stock calipers painted they are still smaller than the covers.

 

[HeyEph]

Has anyone else installed red caliper covers or painted them red that has the Gemini wheels with no covers on? Any more pics to share?
Best source of red caliper covers with the Tesla logo these days?

 

[HeyEph]

None?
