Thk you for helping.

The clips from MG titan didn't fit and made the Caliper cover touch the wheel.
So I overlayed the original orange covers over the new MG Titan ones and drilled through to get the correct spacings.
I then fitted them using some new stainless cap heads bolds and some spacers behind them to make them sit square.
I hope that helps

Yes front and back, front are easier to do than back but you must get the position right, otherwise the cover will touch the inner part of the wheel.
I forgot to mention that I removed the fitting tabs on the cover.
The MG Titan covers now on do look good, but I can't recommend them as they don't fit without modification.

I bought cover caliper in mgtitan for the Mg4 Xpower, but as other members said, The clips didn't fit and made the caliper cover touch the wheel.
The seller asked me for photos and said it would fit !
Dont trust them.
I just share my experience for others.

Not cheap either. You can make them fit with a bit of work.

As spoken about earlier, especially as it is brakes, would invalidate insurance if they are not informed.
I prefer originals myself.

“…especially as it is brakes” . Nothing in stock covers affects braking, if anything having covers would prevent heat dissipating and make braking worse

Edit: but if we’re talking about aftermarket covers that work differently then
