Default Caliper Covers

Let's see your caliper covers. What do you guys find best? I see MGP looks like a good quality product. Any pics and details would be great. Thanks!

I had them on my Nissan with custom "JUKE" script. The looked great and were very durable even here in the Northeast winters.
They will draw attention...even from the "nay-sayers" who spout "those look stooped"! Mission accomplished...they got your attention. Most ppl liked them.
Seen here best shot I got of them.

so what is the condition of your calipers after prolonged use? I heard that debris can accumulate under the cover and cause excess corrosion to the calipers.

Well I never went "off-roading" in the Juke so prolly not much debris under them. I can say I went through 3 winters in the Northeast and I never had an issue with snow and ice with the covers and the calipers were largely protected by the covers. They did keep my wheels much cleaner from brake dust as well. I managed to blow up the motor at about 40K miles, Nissan replaced the motor and shortly after I sold it off. It was a fun project to take it from a 180Hp car to near 270Hp.
