C-RichSS Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thought I'd share. I finally got my Billet Grille and did the hi 6 mod with 12k HID's all the way around. Next on the list is new headlights with the clear reflector and ditch the amber ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bag Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Looks great but defeats the purpose of the brake cooling ducts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-RichSS Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thanks. And the fogs don't take up the entire space of the ducts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downeast Johnny Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Looking good Brother. Blocking the brake ducts would be just about the least of my worries. If your not riding your brakes a lot I seriously doubt that they are needed for cooling. Even then, they aren't ducted to the rotor so minimal effect on cooling.

C-RichSS Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Thanks Johnny Pretty sure they're mainly there for looks anyway. I don't run it hard so I'm not worried about it. I wanna put some Red Willwoods on it someday. IMO i think it would set it off and slow it down even better Edited July 23, 2014 by C-RichSS (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houston05tx Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 nice work! im about to do the hi 4 mod tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-RichSS Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Thanks man! Do you have HID's? If so it's almost a must because of the warm up delay. But even if not it'll still make it a lot nicer to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian22030 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 True brake ducts have ducting going near the brakes and are benifical when under extreme heat I.e. road coarse racing. They blow air to the brakes when hitting high enough speeds thus cooling them.... I'm afraid ours are just for show gentlemen. Still look cool though C-rich who makes the grill you put on? Did you have to remove the oem mesh ( hard to tell from the pics plus I'm using my phone)? Looks good, how much? N where Nice set up man!

Blown 346 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I agree, The ducts are there for looks, not for added air flow to the brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
