I'd very much like it to be free, but that's just not reality. In this case, the whole is equal to more than the sum of the parts. For over 3 years, no one has come out with a brake cooling kit for this car. The simple matter of fact is that making the replacement splash guard that mounts on the hub and has a hose flange isn't so straight forward. If you can do it yourself, go for it. Until some other companies come out with similar kits, Stillen can charge whatever they like. $295 is reasonable for anyone that truly needs it. Would I like it to be $150? Absolutely, and I would have ordered already. For now, I'll ponder it a while longer and maybe order in a month or two if I think I really need it.
