04 TL Brake Calipers

My 04 6-Spd TL came stock with brembo front calipers. Either they came with custom calipers or the previous owner had put custom caliper covers with "Acura" written on them. I think it looks pretty nice. I am throwing some slotted/drilled rotors and new pads on the front and rear in the next few weeks. I wanted to find similar acura covers for the rear calipers but haven't had any luck.So now i'm debating on buying Brembo Caliper Covers on ebay for all 4 calipers. Just trying to get some opinions as to what u guys think. I think it would be stupid to put them on if i didnt have brembo brake, but i do have brembos on the front. here's a picture of what the front caliper looks like now.

Factory Brembos are supposed to say "Acura".

Thanks, Thats what i assumed after looking at photos of other 6Spd TL's. I guess ill just leave my back calipers alone since theres prob no way to get them to look like the front.

just paint ur rear calipers black... and yes the 6speed comes with "ACURA" branded Brembos (note your front rotors have to be for brembo when you purchase)
