I will be getting some more pics as those are what I will be adding to my ride shortly.
I need to put on the C5 caliper brackets the C5 drilled and drilled & slotted Rotors.

Ok I need some of these out there for some feedback on them. The next five people who want them can PM me for a discount code (new addition to the website) for a price I cannot advertise!
Dan I will make sure we take care of you.

Well damn. I wish I had the extra cash, and knew about these sooner. I just did the brakes on my car, and painted my calipers red. These would make it look a hell of a lot better. If I get some more parts sold, or find some extra cash within the next couple of weeks, I may end up ordering a set. I'd probably get them without the MGP letters on them too.

Haha Ya, my partner paid a bunch of money and had his calipers painted body color (candy apple) only to get them all dirty a week later (brake fluid or something)
The MGP does not make much of a difference, they kind of look a little bare without something. We would have to order them though if you want them without so it would take a bit longer.

Looks ridiculous! Exuse me for being straight forward.. but i hink those would icrease heat onto the calliper wich would increase brake fade (as our cars have constantly..)

Since it is only a front cover it would not impeed any cooling effect. The Mfg. claims it acts more like a heat sink and draws heat out of the calipers. I do not personally support either position as far as that goes.
If it is better braking that you are after then you would spend the $2G's and get a 4 or 6 piston setup.
I am going to the C5 rotor myself and will be adding these as well because they help keep brake dust from collecting on the rims a pet peeve of mine (I don't have the time I used to have to clean the car, its called the Al Bundy effect).
Everyone is entitled to their opinions though and it is obviously not for you.

The GM Licence is in the works and should be a done deal in a month or two.
Also I have a laser engraver that can do custom engraving inexpensively.
matching paint can be had fro $100 though.
