Hi NAMers, I need some help here. I've been doing a big research for my project of this month, break systems. I've decided to go with JCW brakes, SS brake lines, R56 rotors and ceramic pads. Now, that I've got the idea of installing brake ducts, I've couple of questions:
-Are they GP only parts? Can I get them easily for my R53?
-Do I have to remove the lower front fog lights and intall the GP style vents?
-Are they really needed? I know that R56 rotors are vented internally and the ceramic pads do operate at high temps.

What's the added value of the brake ducts then?

 

I'd be interested in these. I'm getting an Aero Front Bumper, so this could be good for my R53

 

Contact Way Motor Works - he has brake ducts.

Not needed for a street car, unless you live in the mountains. Very useful for a track car, even with the upgrades you plan.

More info available if you do a search.
