Does the 16 ilx aspec have the same calipers as the 15

I recently purchase MGP caliper covers for $179 and the front calipers covers were too small, the covets are too thin and only covered 3 quarters in the caliper,

the rear fit perfectly fine. The tech support at MGP said that i have the correct covers for the ilx 2013-2016

2013 - 2015 Brake Rotors are 11.8" for the 2.4 Model and 11.1 for the Base model.

2016 ILX Brake Rotors are 12.3 for all models.


2013 - 2015 ILX Caliper Covers will not fit. They use a smaller Caliper.

When you say base do you mean 2.0? Or base as in the base model ILX that has the smaller 16in wheels?

I figured that. thanks for the info. i sent back the caliper covers today. tomorrow i have to call them cuz i seen on the website that there is a 20% restocking fee which i hope gets waived being that it is MGP fault.

Good luck. I purchased coilovers from XLR8 performance... or Excelerate. A vendor here. They didnt fit. I asked for a refund based on false advertisement since the part did not fit as advertised and they told me I would have to pay restocking fees. Part still does not fit as advertised and they are still unwilling to do right by me.

I told them what they needed to do to make it right, which was replace the part that still wont fit, they so far have ignored that inquiry. Piece of shit company if you ask me. Should have given me a refund but they knew theyd be out the money I spent and didnt care to do the right thing so they kept my money. I believe they no longer sell the shitty produce they sold me. I got fucked and they didnt even buy me dinner first.

Again, good luck.
