Default Brake Calipers

Hello all. This is my first post and I'm excited to now a new Audi. I just leased a 2018 A6 2.0. I'd like to make the brake calipers red but have only gotten myself confused searching online. Since it's leased I don't want to paint them but I've seen several options for "covers" online. I want to be careful adding anything aftermarket to the breaking system so I thought best to check in with the community on this.

Thanks for any help, cheers!

Please don’t use the composite covers....they look tacky. POR-15 and several other companies make brush-on self leveling paint if you’re not inclined to remove the calipers to paint them.

I'd be hesitant to paint calipers if I were leasing. It's seems frowned upon to get caliper covers, but it's your car and it won't hurt the lease condition of your car. I see plenty of people using the MGP covers. If it makes you happy do it. Most people won't notice the difference.
