[B5 R/T]

Hey everybody, I found a set of used MGP covers from a 2012 Charger R/T for sale, and I was wondering if you think they should fit my 2015 R/T Road & Track? Did the brakes change at all for the 2015 model year?

I don't believe there has been any change in the calipers for the 2015s and the covers probably would fit. But I sure wouldn't do this "mod." In my opinion, it looks cheesy and cheapens the look of the car.

See I'm not sure myself. They don't look that great, but I also don't care for how the calipers look painted. It seems cheesier than the covers to me. Dunno.

I can't say I'm fond of the painted calipers either. Both the painted calipers and the covers draw attention to your rotors which are nothing special.

I'd wait until you can do a Big Brake kit. You get great looks and enhanced functionality.

I'll be honest, that'll probably never happen. So much money to upgrade the stock brakes that work just fine for me.

Then I would leave them exactly as they are - no caliper paint or covers. Let the nice looking wheels you have be the center of attention.

IDK, I like caliper covers. They add a touch of color highlight like we used to back in the day when we painted brake drums red.

They can also be customized for a clean look.

If the MGP covers were a bit cheaper than $200 new I'd jump on it. That price for 4 pieces of aluminum is just too high.
