    What are the chances of these caliper covers coming off, lock nuts loosening off? Will you have to retighten these lock nuts everytime you get your wheels rotated? ?

    Can't imagine if these came loose while you were driving on the freeway.

    I just watched the video, it appears theat they use lock washers to help hold the clips on.

    I guess you could always put a dab of lock tite on the screw also.

    I guess they could come loose if they're not installed correctly, but I've had them on for over a year with no problems... I think they look way better then just painting the calipers. And of course I had them color matched.

    Deja vu... :eek:


    Instead of changing the cabin filter, here's another direction you can go... ;)

    Chemical Guys Stripper Scent Premium Air Freshener & Odor Eliminator (16 oz)
    Why Buy This Product?
    • Ummm, because it smells like strippers?
    • Eliminates odors and reduces new odors over time
    • Ready to use but can be diluted if desired
    • Formulated to last 5 times longer than conventional car air fresheners; subtle scent last for weeks o_O
    • Also available in a 4 ounce trial size and gallon size :eek:
