Yes, KNS is the primary seller at this time. We are focusing on the manufacturing side, and have partnered with KNS to handle the logistics. It’s also worth mentioning, KNS has hinted at including a coupon for track pads with the purchase of a duct kit.

As promised, here are some pics of the 3D printed ducts, how they assemble to the factory air inlet, and how they look installed.

I've seen them on a convertible because a customer bought the track deflectors and I installed them.
I have seen a 2016 SS Convertible, and it did not have the brake ducting at all (which my Coupe does have). No ducts, and no openings in the fender liner for them. No auxiliary coolers for the engine either. The front grille had some block-off plates over the spots that have ducts in a Coupe as well. Perhaps the car you worked on was modded already?

While you're at it the SS 1LE guys may want to install the smaller splash shield that comes in the SS Track deflector kit

This looks awesome! Definitely interested for my SS 1LE. Are there install instructions for the kit?

Well rotor temperatures can easily exceed 1000 F with gummy tires and track brakes.


Nobody has a before and after yet, these just shipped yesterday.

The aluminum plate at the wheel end looks kind of flimsy and already appears to be bowed in the picture (could be an illusion?). I worry about how long this will hold up if it can flex easily. Is the production piece a thicker gauge?

Mine is totally flat and does not bow out at all when installed.

Good to know. Thanks! Any other feedback you can provide on fit/finish, ease of installation, etc?

We will be getting this comparison data at the start of the 2019 season and will report back.

We did some temp testing at the end of the 2018 season on our prototyped kits, but weren't able to get comparison data before our last event.

Thanks for your interest.
