3.0si Coupe front brake duct cover removal?
Any benefit? Any harm? Obviously the car has fog lights and no other ducting. Will be used on the track so I might look into fabbing up some eventually but wondering if just removing the covers will help at all.

This is how I did my custom ducts on my 3.0si. Im not finish yet...
I will get some longer tubing so I can get the outlets just behind the brake disks. Maybe getting something like this to connect the tubes.

They are located in the wheel well, not on the front bumper. At least I assumed that is what they were? Maybe it is access for something else I don't know. I didn't actually remove one yet.
And that custom ducting looks pretty darn good. |

The cover is for accessing the bulb for the fog light. I cant see any pros removing this because its right in front of the tire. First I planned to do the outlet just beside this cover but found out that it would get cold air more to the brakes if I routed the tube the way I did. Of course they should have been longer though...
