Message ... also for looks. For some reason, I have always liked the looks of sport cars with side rear intaekes. I know there is no point to have them unless you have a rear or middle engine mount, or like you said, for brake cooling.
I have also found out that you can use the ducts not only for brake cooling, but also for aerodynamics, you can create ducts with air exhaust at the rear end, with some degrees of inclination towars the top, so air pushes down the car, just like a spoiler.
I have already designed a good ducting system for both front and rear brakes, I currently have the Wings west side skirts on my Z, and I was planning to use the small inatkes on them for brake cooling. So a wide fender kit would do just as good.
But for most of it, I want it for looks ;)

Thanks
Danny
