hmmm, looks pretty weird, the body molding doesn't match up anymore. I think for a true race car pretty nice though. Also, I think that the whole front end has been cut off of this car. It says.. "the front will need to be tubed out" and I can't see it in this picture....

Not brake ducts at all, just a little bling, Rear brakes don't need ducts anyway.

Am I wrong in thinking that the little extra brake cooling provided from brake ducts is a good idea? I have seen some race cars with some RED rotors...

They are only red during braking, as soon as there is no pressure they cool off.
