    FS: Brake Cooling Components

    I have lightweight stainless steel backing plates for sale. I bought them months ago, but now I'm boosting my engine and I want to direct airflow to my intercooler instead. These plates look just like the ones on Turner Motorsport listed for $249.95.

    "These allow you to duct fresh, cool air to the center of the rotor where it needs it most. The addition of these backing plates and appropriate ducting will increase brake pad life by as much as 50%! A cooler braking system will also dramatically reduce brake fade and decrease braking distances." And according to Bimmerworld they also prevent fluid boil, rotor ware, and rotor warp.

    I bought these from a fellow r3ver who bought them from Bimmerworld for $199.99: http://store.bimmerworld.com/brake-c...parts-p45.aspx
    I will sell them for $140 OBO because they are used.

    These are just the plates and hardware. I can include the ducts and hoses that you need as well, these can be had for cheap.
    These install very easily, remove three bolts holding on your dust shield then cut it off. These backing plates are designed to slide over your wheel hub so that there's no need to remove them. Although, if you're planning on replacing the bearings, you don't even need to cut off the OEM dust shield.

    Edit: Price includes shipping. Pm, email makeshifte30@gmail.com, or call/text 443-501-6220.

          No one looking to increase stopping power and life expectancy of their brakes?

                Any pictures of them installed on your car? I'm wondering where the airflow is directed, and if it's possible to keep most of the dust shield in tact.

                  No, I never got a chance to install them. The backing plate is designed to bring air directly to the brake calipers. You may be able to keep the dust shield intact, however it is not necessary. The backing plate will keep dust out of the wheel hub just as well.
