brake cooling


i was thinking of building my own brake cooling kit just by having a tube run from the lower grille opening to the brakes yall think that would help airflow enough to take the time to do it?

The Agent 47 setup would be around 450. I would try to make my own too.

yeah thats what i thought, i need to do something with my brakes though. I drove my sister in laws G6 and the brakes were fuckin excellent stopped on a dime. Went back to my stang and it was like stopping a boat. The rotors are new and the pads have a lot of life left i don't get it.
