Hmmmm......
I maybe wrong but these look like the parts that come with the BMWP front apron.....and the ad does say 'for use with the Performance aero package'......which would indicate it is. In that case you'd need to fit the BMWP front apron, and if you bought one of those, you'd get these parts included.....so I'm kind of

That kit will do almost nothing for brake cooling by itself, just pushing air to the wheel wells. The air needs to be concentrated at the rotors to be effective.

If you do not get these with the Performance Bumper, than what happens to the vents? Anyone have a picture of the bumper without these vents? Or are these vents a must when getting the bumper?

You are correct Maurzog, I will definitely need those unless I decide to fabricate my own via modifying our existing plate. I have been looking at them for months, I just have no clue how there won't be rubbing from the wheels on the hose, would love to see real good photos that explain how to set the hose up to minimize wheel rubbing. I recollect the Berk thread (can't find), but I also recall the photos not being too descriptive for a weekend warrior/HPDE driver using a Daily Driver (yes I know I will need to take the hoses off after the track and put them on before the track). If anyone has good photos or DIY, please post or PM me.

Anooooh as you have the performance bumper, can you post a picture of the performance air ducts close up? I would like to look into this bumper for my own car, but I have PPK2 hardware + stock oil cooler and I'm not sure if i can get the right ducting for it :P
