I was thinking of installing caliper covers instead of painting the calipers.
I'm not sure what calipers come with the kit.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Don't do it. They look cheap

Usually, when someone proposes a mod that's not quite to my taste I'd say; "your car, do what you like." But, sorry man, I gotta say... "PLEASE NO!!!!" when it comes to caliper covers.
Sorry... rant off.

Instead of offering an unsolicited opinion I'll answer your question. The complete kit front calipers are 2 piston PBRs from 1999-2002 Mustangs. Rear brakes are not included with the kit so you'll have to refer back to what you used; most likely a SN95 Mustang GT or Cobra setup if it is a straight axle or Thunderbird SC brakes on an IRS.

I am pretty sure the calipers will run cooler painted than covered up.
