Just curious, what are the principle differences between this kit and the DIY brake cooling project some of us do? See: DIY - Brake Cooling Ducts
I was hoping for something that doesn't utilize the fang vents as I was hoping to duct air into my Gen 3's from there. Can't get a Stillen fascia either because I already bought a Stillen splitter + canards..

I feel the Stillen kit is nicer than the DIY way. Which the DIY is nice and nothing really wrong with it. I just like the flanges that come with the Stillen due to they mount directy to the bumper and hub in a solid manner.

So far as using the vents for the G3's I wouldn't worry so much about that for the G3's are pretty efficient as is. You might not like the looks but you could buy duct inserts that can be placed directly in front of the filters. Unless rain is an issue.

As far as directional rotors they will benefit more. Not sure how efficient they are with a solid blank rotor.
