Why I am not surprised.

Hmmm, I have an idea for those. I'd order a set and glue both halves to the stapler on my desk! I'd have an Endless stapler!

Hey nothing wrong with Fakebo's ......On my WRX I painted the calipers red (Same color as the EVO's) and put the Brembo sticker on it....ALOT of people thought they were the real deal.

Your Honor, I plead guilty for having a "Rice" mod on my old subie

Those look fine other than the fakeness of the sticker. BTW does the sticker stay on? I would think the heat would make it come off.

Also, does painting the calipers with the caliper paint mess up the calipers or make the brakes overheat quicker?

I used cailper paint, so the paint held on great and it didn't effect the heat at all. The stickers I got from a buddy of mine. He bought Brembo rotors and in the shipping box, it came with 2 Brembo stickers.

After applying the stickers (The adhesive that was on them was really tacky), I sprayed afew layers of clear on top.....Held on for the entire time I owned the car, no problum. I cleaned the cailpers everytime I wash the car, and the sticker held up, even to a power washer.
