Brake accessory question
Has anyone installed these? How do they attach and what do you think of them?

The only bling I have on my C5. These became popular back when I first bought my '02. I store this car on my lift so the brakes are at eye level. Visitors never fail to complement them when they see these. Subtle but finish the calipers.

Same here... just installed new Decelarotors the past week to get replace the worn rotors in this old photo, but migrated the brake shoe plates - they still look like new after several years as a DD. They go great with powder-coated calipers! I polished mine up with "BlingMaster" while I had them off and they look just like chrome again.

Those look pretty good - just wish they didn't cost $100 for a set.

Those look awesome! I painted mine years ago including the brackets. I pull the wheels off a couple of times or so, per year to clean the wheel barrels and the calipers and touch up the paint on the calipers. I also scrub down the wheel wells while I am at it They still look great after several years.
I drive my car, no show car phobia here, but the Silverbullet tags a trophy ever once in a while. Clean wheels, calipers wheel wells must help some.
