This is the best brake calliper cover install video on KZbin.

[@AliMECH]

Thanks 🙏

[@JeanCarlo5]

Wow great job man, this is the best caliper cover install video on youtube, totally agree

[@AliMECH]

I appreciate that! Thanks for watching

[@faing4923]

This is really the best DIY brake caliper cover video on KZbin.

[@AliMECH]

Thanks 🙏🏻

[@soukiallen1]

most peps they just add the plastic cover to the caliper and done! but you went extra mile and painted everything which makes sense and made everything blend in which looks great. thumbs up to you i think ima do the same on mine. also ilike the fact that you drill and tap instead of using a silicone glue on the cover its realy safe thatway.

[@AliMECH]

Thanks Ray, I just wanted to make something practical for brake pad replacement, thanks for watching

Drilling holes leads to stress fractures and breaks. Compromising the strength. The pre rust coating has been removed by drilling also.

[@truebit7544]

Great video. But I would say, drilling the callipers is a bad idea, could lead to stress fractures, which on brakes would be bad news.

[@martinwu9339]

Yes, I agree. The best idea is to install the caliper covers on the caliper bracket.

[@dustinbarrett7811]

@@martinwu9339 what do you mean bracket

[@quincybirwood2629]

It's clear you (truebit) are are a troll but for everyone else, calipers (for a Camry) are usually made of ductile iron. There are only a few ports used to hold the brake fluid. The rest of the caliper is quite thick. Reviewing where the holes were drilled and how forces would be applied to the caliper, there a very low probability that drilling and tapping for such small screws would cause a stress fracture.

Wow! That was really really neat. I wish you can fit my calipers here in Jacksonville, Fl. 👍🏼😊

Thanks 😊

[@davidalarcon1857]

Thank you so much! Very detailed. I loved the video. I actually drive a 2017 Camry so this will definitely help me a lot. Again, thanks!

[@AliMECH]

Thanks for watching

[@Keeping-It-Real-55]

Nice, very nice. I should totally just drill mine in without all the extra steps. I wanted to use magnets but drilling and tapping are a way better method for security.

[@AliMECH]

Thanks, screws gives good and real look to the caliper and its easier

[@FJTabb]

What size screws did you use???

Do the abs type melt under the heat of the brakes.

[@AliMECH]

You mean 3d printing abs felament? Or the cover I used

[@inder848]

Very nicely done....if the Camry written had been in white color..it would looked more kool.. still awesome look

[@AliMECH]

Thanks, agree with you, but the rear spoiler palstidiped in black and the front gril is black, thats why i made it black

[@Fitnessboyoli]

Thanks fam just got mine in mail but what size bit is that to drill the hole

[@AliMECH]

Thanks, 4mm

[@MrLospect]

First :-) well done.

[@valentinjemric1498]

It wants to melt from the brake heating?

[@AliMECH]

Yes exactly ✌✌

[@GunnarSoroos]

Nice! Does drilling and tapping threads into the caliper weaken it all?

[@AliMECH]

No it's a 5mm drill bit and 8mm depth, it wont effect it

[@ChivitaAngulo619]

What grit of sandpaper did you use? They look amazing

[@AliMECH]

240 and thanks

[@sloWhip]

So relieved I found your video. Question, how is it so far? Did you have to tighten the screws over again just to make sure? And also, can I leave it when going to a shop or dealer? Thanks mate, brilliant idea. 👍👍💯

[@AliMECH]

Thanks, no I haven't tighten it again, it held up pretty good so far, never had any problems so far

[@sloWhip]

@@AliMECH good to hear, I wonder where did you bought the screws, pretty sure it is stainless right?

[@AliMECH]

lol thanks man, hope you enjoyed it

[@DULLAHGOSOHARD]

You know there is a way to upgrade the brakes from a single piston caliper to double piston and everything fist perfect if you interesting let me know

[@mrvn44]

Great video and great way to set your "own logo" on your car, I liked the idea to repaint all of it. I did not like the way you install them, by drilling your calipers, I think there are better ways to do it. Sick though!

[@MrArjanOskam]

What are the better ways? Glue means removing them every time you got to access the brakes

[@st.patrickreid8968]

The best way is to use screws glue only damage the cover every time you have to do a brake job.....common sense

[@sonyfxi]

Just like watching a movie.. I was thinking okay.. I see where this is going then BAAAM!! Wow, you screw mounted the caliper cover. That is too legit!!!! Awesome job! How are they holding up?

[@AliMECH]

Lol thanks, it's doing pretty well, since the day posted the video, never had problem with it.

[@MrArjanOskam]

@@AliMECH Wow that's pretty darn impressive!

[@AliMECH]

Thanks bro 🙏🙏

[@MrArjanOskam]

@@AliMECH A question! How hard is it to replace the brake pads now? Do I need to remove the covers? I don't really like the idea of drilling tho, you sure this isn't harmfull?

[@AliMECH]

For replacing pad u only need to undo 2 cover screws and undo one bolt to lift the pad older and take the pades out, and no, it won't effect the it, it's only 4mm hole and 5mm deep

[@eriklaguiraoficial]

Dude is a beast but that’s just too much work for some plastic covers IMO ... but you def the man !

[@AliMECH]

Thanks man, lol yea I know, but the result came out good

No, normal 6mm

AliMECH thank you so much... Also would there be an advantage using a stainless steel screw over the standard

[@AliMECH]

@@IMGROWN3232 That's would be better🙏👌, they wont rust... Otherwise if use regular, you have to paint them.

AliMECH... thank you so much for the best caliper tutorial and your help!!!!

@@IMGROWN3232 You are welcome, glad my video helped you.

[@alvindanica]

Is really ok to drill? Is that not going to cause any issues on the braking system? Hmmmm

[@dannydnice1]

They wont melt?

[@AliMECH]

No, they are high temperature resistant

[@blessed4164]

Purty kool!

[@Andy-si1pl]

i felt like i had to hold my nose watching that!

[@KrustyKlown]

11:00 should have used stainless steel screws and blue thread locker .. .. and globbed some RTV underneath to keep the cover from flapping around in the breeze. Overall, nice job ... painting the caliper seems a must do.

[@moneymakinscottie8925]

Where did u get the item you used to sand the old words off

[@AliMECH]

Its 240 grit sandpaper, you can find it in any hardware store

[@kaneki467]

I’m late but will this fit a 2019 Dodge Charger ?

[@AliMECH]

I'm not sure, you can check the size of this cover and your cars caliper

[@MrArjanOskam]

​@MOPARGuy Well, if you find it to look good, what does it matter? It's not about what others think, it's about what you think, right? Or are you someone who would go to the gym and get ripped for girls, instead of your own hapiness? I do things because I like them, and I couldn't care less about what others think.

Assalamualaikum.. Hi Ali.. Im from malaysia, I was installed the brake Caliper Cover like yours today. . But i still worried, how if the cover caliper is burn/melted because of heated.. Are you guaranteed for this product is safe for my brake?

They are not normal plastic, they are hard plastic and heat resistant, mine still the same since I installed them

What size of screw did you use? And what is the name and the size of the tool you used to make holes? Please answer✌🏻

I used 6mm screw and I used drill bit to make the holes

Now, why did I think it would be something easy???

CCI’s definitely look better then MGP’s caliper covers. Also MGP reviews on their website you would think they’re the best thing out there but check with the Better Business Bureau they’re not so good. I had my dealings with MGP and I will never buy anything from them.

[@cassiuskinkade]

Time is money. All that time to use plastic covers could have bought nice aluminum ones and been done

[@savage_han]

I odered a pair from eBay. Too small

U have to check the measurements, use it for rear calipers

Just buy blue ones

It wasn't available at that time, and this blue is the same colour as the car and they don't come with camry text
