Bro, I asked around for customised side skirts and it only costs less than RM 500 to get similar ones like the picture you posted. Best part is that there will be air vents that forces air into the rear brakes.

Full customised bodykit will allow cooling on the front brakes, like the pictures you posted as well.

You can't install side scoops like those on the Ferraris/Lambo but you can still customised the side skirts to include air vents that allows air to cool down your brakes. Best part is its the same price as our Mugen sideskirts.

Bro's,

Sorry but OT for while. Hope you don't mind, it's a noob question. Brakes will operate at a ccertain temp right sometimes the higher the better....

Therefore if you have a cooling vent such as this, would'nt it affect your braking abilities???

AFAIK, after looking thru.. the FD2R Feel's side air duct/vent..
it is practically for aerodynamic purposes.. to 'keep' the car 'stable' during high speed..
(same concept goes for 'roof vent' on most rally cars')
no routing air duct to the rear disk brake....

stock FD2R uses non-ventilated rear 'solid' disk.. mainly because, being a FF car..rarely need 'extra' cooling effect for the rear disk,
cos the main braking point for FF car is at the front disk..

i got the picture of FD2R feel's side air vent/duct.. but don't now how to put it.. since pdf. format liao..

You do not press the brakes all the time so the brakes will cool down anyway. The cooling is essential when you are braking from high speeds.

For stock brakes, it does not matter how cool it is, once you brake it will get hot very fast. Try to brake from 130km/h to a complete stop and you will feel severe brake judder indicating that the brakes are running too hot.
