Aftermarket Caliper Covers

Saw on another thread where someone purchased and installed aftermarket caliper covers from a company called MGP (https://www.calipercovers.com/). I went to the vendors site and made custom ones that I thought would look best. My 2013 RDX came with caliper covers on the front that look exactly like these, but not the rear. $230 seems pretty pricey, but I think they out look really nice.

Any practical reason(s) for not adding these?

Anyone have any negative/positive experiences with this vendor?

why not just order the RDX OEM ones...???

they are OEM and cost like $30 or something low as opposed to the MGD custom ones shown above.
many people have retrofitted them on other cars...the TL and the MDX for example.
it's really easy to put on.

That would work for the front, but the RDX didn't have rear covers. And unfortunately, I don't believe you can order just rears from that vendor.

right, we on the TL side have used the RDX covers for the rears.

A lot of members have been doing them for the front of their non brembo calipers. Covers are $22.00 from the dealership look me no more than a few mins to install and repaint them black, then 2 hours for the RTV to cure. Let me know what you guys think!!
