Default MY 2006 Fake brake scoops

Hey everyone!

I'm new to the S2K world, but wow, I love this car.
One thing that drives me batty are the faux brake scoops on the 2006 front end.
Is there a kit that will make them functional?

Other than that, I'm looking for recommendations on a cold air intake vs. stock with different filter (ie Spoon or Comptech) and X -Brake/ Strut brace suggestions.

Thanks a lot!

There isn't an off the shelf kit to make them functional, you'd have to cut them out and make your own ducting.

Rick's x brace or Comptech x brace. Probably doesn't do anything other than lighten your wallet though.

i think someone said 600 is motor break in but your tranny is still breaking in so be easy with the shifts. (not sure though)

as far as brake ducting someone has pictures of them using dryer tubing (the metal tubing to vent heat from the back of your dryer) and running it some way into the braking system.
