Default Brake Caliper Inserts

Anyone know any additional manufacturers that make a brake caliper insert like the ones on the below link?

Been loading up my credit card with parts, looking for something a bit more affordable for my next purchase so I can continue with retail therapy during the winter season. I hear it can improve braking due to added aerodynamics.

Try a company called Harley Davidson, or ebay

I'd suspect the caliper inserts will have zero effect on improving braking, they're just for looking nice I used the HD #44477-99 caliper inserts and the #43834-98 bleeder covers to pretty up the front and rear calipers; to improve braking I'll be installing the Arlen Ness Big Brake Rotor kit and some Lyndall Racing Z brake pads

yeah, only like $15 from the dealer, much cheap than buying a whole caliper for sure.
