^^^ fashionably late that is 
haha me too
OP, not feeling the covers so i'd have to say NO! buy some ceramic caliper paint and paint your calipers if you want them a diff color. I did this nearly 2 yrs ago and still holding up. The OEM calipers aren't bad at all, they could use just a little more style if you know what i mean. If you want the BMW logo on like mine you first paint the spring the color of the logo you want. I chose red, and normally you'll have this match the calipers. Now let it dry. Once completely dry, put about an inch size letter templates (BMW) on the spring and paint over it again. Peel away the letters (while paint is still tacky) and viola! No plastic, no stickers nor decals. Just OEM stuff
