Caliper Covers


Recommended Posts

So the questions is..... Did they mount up well? ......and does this seem like a product that you will get some life time out of? Maybe you could also post were you purchased them, purchase amount and ease of install : ))

Looks very good !

Thanks for your comments. I had my trusted mechanic install them, and he also thought they were excellent quality that should last a long time. He said they were a very easy install, under an hour in time. You can purchase them from calipercovers.com at around $230 plus shipping if you want the Lincoln and MKZ logos - slightly cheaper for the standard MGP logo. I actually bought them from the Canadian site, as usual it cost more up here, but I love them.

When I worked for Shelby, we used to carry their products - good quality.

Where did you get these, can you take pics of the back ones as well, and seeing the car full view so you can see what it looks like.

 

Got them at calipercovers.com - well worth the investment to me. Here are pics of the covers for the rear, and a full side view as requested.

 

I get so many positive comments - they really draw the eye to the wheels.

I've had mine on now for about a year & a half. Surprisingly, they are still holding up really well. Very easy to install. Took about 35-40 minutes for all 4 and that includes taking each wheel off & on. They are pricy though but gives the car a much better appearance rather than the stock calipers.

Technically not hijacking the thread. Just wanted to ask a relevant question.

I non-member friend has the same 2017 3.0 AWD as mine and is looking for the same caliper cover mentioned here. They are apparently is on sale now at a 3rd party retailer.

Question: Is there any difference with the 2.0 and 3.0 caliper dimension/size?

The retailer is listing the product as for "all MKZ models" but when he checks it at the manufacturer's website (MGP) the part numbers for 2.0 and 3.0 are different. Retailer says they guarantee it will fit across all MKZ models (2017+).

What do you think?

I didn't realize this wasn't answered, however, my friend went ahead and purchased through the manufacturer - MGP actually told him there is a difference between the 2.0 and 3.0 but did not elaborate.

It looked nice, material is good and was very easy to install as mentioned here in this thread. He liked it but there is a little or glaring issue (depends on the person's level of OCD ?). The issue is specific to those who ordered with engraved letters, logo or drawing.

They are engraved with exactly the same orientation. Meaning, if the letters are trending upwards on one side, they will be trending downwards on the other side.

He spoke with a customer service rep about this and was told they engraved it in pair which is more of a convenience for the manufacturer. Also, if he wanted to have both sides to have the same orientation, he would have to order 2 sets and specify the other set to be in a different orientation. One cannot order a 1 set with both sides having opposite orientation.

He wrote a review on MGP's website about what to expect when purchasing this item and somehow they still have not posted his review although the review count keep filing up and apparently MGP is only posting 5 star reviews on their site. Luckily, he said, he took a screenshot of his review and is posting that shot in their social media site.

I was gonna purchase but now I'm thinking ?
