Added the MGP covers in Black almost a year ago. Happy w/ the look. Definitely cuts down on the dirt/grime/dust from the discs & the wheels stay pretty clean.
But w/ factory 20" chrome wheels they're kinda hard to see. (Maybe it's just the phone camera view?)

Found a screamin' deal on Amazonia & couldn't resist. Methinks somebody screwed up the price listing 'cause I've never seen them that low $$ on any site over the last 10-months.
Yes - I found the same thing - really wanted red - but couldnt stomach 189.99 for them....popped up on amazon search for 39.98, but they were black...couldnt hit buy it fast enough
40 bux, Ill take the chance, see how they look.

$40? Great deal! For that price you could take a chance and paint them the red color you wanted.

If you are not tied to the Ford stamping, MGP also made some for SCA Performance. These are the ones I'm running:

If need be, I can get you a better zoomed in pic when I land in a few hours.

Here is my 2013.
I have them on for 5 years without any issues. Keeps brake dust down and looks better than dirty silver calipers.
My daughter liked them so much she had me put some on her car too.

I'm liking mine more and more every day. It amazing how much they really do cut down on the brake dust accumulation on the wheels.

One of the best mod/upgrades I have done so far.

Finally got around to installing them. They don't show as much due to the wheels I have but in the sun light they pop nicely. Completely satisfied with the look.
