Did they actully plumb cooling hoses to the brakes now? Can someone confirm this? I know there is a DIY & stillens kit, but it sounds like it's now factory.
Just ordered my 2013 (hard to believe but there were no Touring 6spd Black on Black in Northern CA).

Was anyone ever able to confirm if the 2013 Sport Pkgs have stock brake cooling ducts?

My god imagine owning that!

I would too. And wouldn't it be purchasable to be installed?

Also curious how it compares to the Stillen kit. Has anyone used or heard reviews about the Stillen kit?
