i dont remember anything being said about the brakes being performance related bud. BTW my truck came stock with 20's so i'm not complaining.

The hood is from Suncoast Creations. It origionally had heat extractors on each side of the scoop. I had those cut out and the holes filled in. There is a duct that goes from the scoop to where the airbox sits so it can be functional.
