Brake cooling ducts are a common practice in motorsport. Severe braking conditions create a tremendous amount of heat at the brake pad, rotors, calipers, and wheel bearing hubs. Under normal driving conditions this heat dissipates during the non braking cool down period.

On the track or hard road use the braking is much more severe and the cool down times are much shorter. As the braking temperature increases, brake component service life is decreased dramatically. A standard set of brake pads and rotors can wear out completely during one weekend of track driving. This is due to the material failure of both the pads and rotors at extreme temperatures. Forcing air directly at the core of the brake rotor, which then passes through the rotor vents, will increase the life of the brake components. The cooling ducts direct the air to the center of the bearing hub and brake rotor. The air is then expelled through the ventilation slots in the center of the rotors.

The backing plates in this kit mount behind the brake discs and are connescted via ducting to air ducts mounted at the front of the car, thereby "force feeding" air to the center of the discs to vastly improve heat dissipation and thus help prevent brake fade.

Kit includes:
- 2x Backing Plates
- 2x Brake Air Inlet Ducts
- Ducting Hose
- Mounting Hardware

This kit includes the 3 piece aluminum protective under panel which is also available seperately Here.

Kit includes:
-High temperature aircraft flex hose, routed to the inner fender wall from duct inlets.
-Left and Right tig welded black anodized aluminum inlet ducts, mounted just inside the spoiler lower center grill.
- CNC machined and tig welded black anodized aluminum flanges mounted at the inner fender wall.
-Stainless steel hardware is used on fastners and clamps.

This system doubles the the air flow to the front rotors and increases the cooling rate by 20%. An essential upgrade to reduce brake fade during heavy braking.

Note: Hose shown in orange for photo purposes only. Actual hose and all fabricated/machined parts are black to become virtually unnoticed once installed.

E30 & E36 M3 Carbon Fibre Brake Inlet Ducts

- These brake ducts replace the original factory fog light assembly in the front bumper.
- They are constructed of impact resistant, paintable "raw" Carbon Fibre.
- For a carbon fibre finish they require prep and laquering
- These must be glued in place (the originals are clipped).
