I don't believe they will fit... but even if they did, I don't really like it. Take some time and paint your calipers if you want them to look better

When doing a mod this big you have to hae a plan of attack. One I think it would be safe to say you need to sell your tC. Two I am sure you can pick up a 1998 Honda Civic for a great price. Three I am sure with very little fabrication these will fit over oem Honda calipers.

Everyone knows Project Mu on a 350Z is better than TRD on a tC. Why would he get it bad? lol

On a serious note, buy those covers, but don't expect us to fund you back when they melt on you and then you gotta buy new brake calipers, along with anything else the melted plastic will get to. lol

No no, they have the "covers" for his car. The real ones are un-freaking-real! I would love him to get a set of the what $5,000 brake kit. He said they have the covers that look like project mu for the 350. Thats why I would hate to be the person who brings that up!

I dunno if most of you have ever looked at parts for other cars, but a tC is one of the cheapest cars to buy parts for. The avg turbo kit for my brother is over 5 grand, brakes are 5 to 10 grand, you cant throw just any rims on it, unless you wanna get flamed, so work and volk basically...averages what 4-7grand a set. And this is a 350 I am sure Supra and what not all have expensive a** parts

so you're trying to justify just buying covers?

actually the material is made out of resins and since resin is a thermoset plastic, once it is heated and melted it wouldn't change shape again.

beside painting caliper wouldn't make them big

and it seems that

NO NO I am saying DO NOT buy these cheap a** pieces crap. I was talking about someone who said the big brake kit for the 350 by projecy mu wasnt as much as I said it was.


The problem is you dont put something like this on your car just to make it look or appear at though you have it. That would be like buying a blow off valve sound maker off ebay to appear as though you have a turbo. Although no one is going to be like oh slam on your brakes I wanna see if they are real, the point is they are not.

idk it might be nice... but like have it painted... not to have the bbk look just have some thing to cover the ugly stock cap... kind of like putting overlays on ur tails, something different
