HUH?
you want to cover your calipers in CF? There MIGHT be some of those "fake Big Brake Kits" on ebay, possibly available in CF.

No offense, but that would look pretty lame.

I don't understand exactly what the OP is trying to accomplish.

I've seen these for other cars going from about $150 to $300, if you're gonna spend $300 for covers might as well get the real thing, Racing Brake calipers cost a little over $500 including new pads. But if money is tight you should look into powder coating

And if your spending money on brakes might as well cutt stopping distance down, I like the Greddy upgrade so far, bit catchy at first.
