Anyways, I am curious to the OP, how was the install. I am curious about something like that product he purchased. It definetely looked like a clean look to me.

Check out http://www.calipercovers.net/ for more details, installation, etc.

ooo, maybe I will do those this summer. I really like them. It is pricey, but a treat is nice every once in a while. I can't tell how much engraving is though. I would get red ones with a silver "F-150" on them. Hmmm, these are interesting

At first I wasn't positive that I had them on right so I pulled up the video but that didn't really help me to much. So I called Greg at GMP and he steered me clear. Once that was cleared up I had maybe 10 minutes in each caliper. Actual install was less than 3 minutes but I kind of him-hawed around checkin' things out and what not. All in all install is super easy.

Ok man, good to hear. And the site said free shipping, so from my detailing money on the side and some money from work... I think I have a new addition to the truck for summer

And thanks man, I think it would look nice, a bit of personalization for our trucks

Looks good. My wheels cover up too much, so no-go for me!

I'm not being negative, I'm trying to fight for the freedom to express one's opinion around here.

Do you guys really believe that we shouldn't comment on people's posts unless they specifically ask for comments?

Just to be clear, I'm not actually asking for your opinion here, it's supposed to be a rhetorical question...

It's obvious you have no idea what we're talking about, even though we couldn't have explained it more clearly, and completely free of rhetoric.

The sad thing is you still don't get it. And I thought I was hard headed.

Holy crap! Remind me never ever to try and produce a new product for the f-150 crowd. Bunch of snobs. Go paint your friggin calipers if you don't like the price and quit b****in about it.
