Front Brake Cooling
On my 1991 S4 I have an aluminium cooling air deflector on the front nearside ( passengers sit here in UK), and just the remains of one on the drivers side. Just a small disc of aluminium, like a washer around the bolt is left in place.
What is the thinking on the Forum: for normal, (sane) and legal speed street use can I delete this one still there? Or do I need to fashion a replacement for the missing one.

Porsche felt it was needed. A used one ( or pair) from 928 Intl are not that expensive. You may rarely use your brakes hard, but when you do, you want them to work to the maximum they can.
My $0.02

Like Ken said^^ I went through the trouble of swapping in an "S" front bumper cover (pre 87) along with ductwork, brackets, etc., to keep brakes cooler on spirited runs, etc.02 T
