Looks damn good! Don’t think I could pull that off with out the body kit. Might seem out of place with the stock look? I think it’s definitely Money well spent over aftermarket “functional” vents

Well I’ll keep an eye out for sure. Any thought to colors, maybe integrate with turn signal? Not sure if it’s legal but what the hell most people are running cat-less DPs

If we do make it then it will just be a daytime running light. Color changing LEDs shouldn’t be an issue, but we’ll see what the best option is.

I have tried a lot of compounds with hawk. Both in stock calipers and a big brake kit. Rears for stock were harder to find but Hawk Direct can get them. Everyone always says less aggressive in rear. But after a lot of pads/ rotors etc I think you would be happy with same pads front and rear . Heat is the issue so dtc 60 or 70 run in the right heat range. I also have verus brake ducts on front and vented fenders (cutting out wheel well liner piece and putting a screen ). So I would suggest you try dtc60 front and rear. I think you will be surprised. They will wear better and will help even out the heat. A harder pad on front does too much of the work and gets way hotter to the 1400+ degrees range You can not adjust brake bias so balancing the pads helps. Both 60 and 70 will squeal no matter how much you try to grease everything. So if you drive as a daily then probably would want to swap out with a street pad to keep your neighbors happy ?

Thanks brother! I’ve been putting it down harder on these DTC 60/30s I’ve been running and shocked how well they’re handling it. Thanks for your feedback! It’s nice to know I can go to Hawk direct and try 70s if I attempt running in the summer or feel I need (want) more. I bought Paragons for my next pads to try, friend’s recommendation. But really digging these Hawks the more I’m running on them!!

Was curious if two smaller yellow fog lights each side could work - help with rainy/foggy nights where road visibility isn't great

Forgot to post these photos in this thread. The fit, finish, and overall quality of these vents is phenomenal! Installed on my 2023 C.U. Later A91:

Hey Oliver,

These look amazing! Any update for us on the gloss black hood vents? Thank you for keeping us in the loop.
