I got these from Caliper Covers USA, they came super fast. I had to buy some permatex adhesive, took maybe 40mins to install all 4. They look amazing.

Because it shows an aftermarket caliper cover... which is what you asked for?

Oh sorry I didn’t see that. Maybe I need to rewatch. I appreciate you posting it.

Questions:

1) Do the covers have the same thermal expansion coefficient as the calipers themselves - for both cold and hot material expansion/contraction?

2) Do they retain heat more due to calipers itself not getting cooler air for convection heat transfer under hard use? (I realize with regen these brakes really don't get used a lot but still it has functional usage - e.g., track or canyon twists)

3) Do they just clip on or bonded onto the calipers?

Just curious about them. I have a yellow calipers so I have no need but did not know such a thing existed. I thought that they needed to be powdercoated in desired color.

Not in my opinion. They definitely make a statement.

I got mine at Auto Accessories Garage for my other Branded cars, I called them and they don’t have Rivian at this time. I don’t know any other place that has them.
