Has Anybody purchased these? Ram Air Induction Towers from Breathless Performance? I think they look really cool (no pun intended) and they can make the Faux Air Intakes functional according to Breathless. I've got a yellow Lux but I'm thinking of getting Black Towers for contrast.

On second thought, if I get Black, my wife will notice the "new hummer toy" maybe I should just stick with yellow.

I've the the Breathless Stage 2b kit. The towers came with the kit, and they come with a stencile. You simply pop your old towers off (they pull right off) and put these ones on. However, if you want them "functional", BPP sends you a cardboard stencile that you place in the middle of where the tower goes, outline, then cut out. Now it'll send some air into your engine bay. I didn't bother making mine functional, it won't make a huge difference, and just lets more water get in there. I wouldn't have bought them seperately either, they just came with the package so why not just toss em' on. They do look good though.

I bought them and made them functional hoping that I would get more cool air for my Whipple. The size of the holes that you cut make me skeptical as to how efficient they are.

Why couldn't a person cut their own stock "towers", epoxy on a nice stainless screen, locate the spot to cut for the functional air intake, save a whole lot of money, and not have any left over parts?

Bad Dawg, you could cut your own but I certainly don't have the talent to cut them evenly and finish them as nicely as these are.
Centerfire, I did mine with a Dremel. You have to cut through the composite and the metal underneath it. It is an L shape hole of just a few square inches.

If you do it, use a sawzall it will make it 100% easier than the Dremel.

I think it would look cool - after all, you have black trim, bumpers, tires, etc. Go for it!

I agree, black on yellow would look neat, like a bee! I thought about doing the black towers on my Orange, but stuck with the orange. Go for it, couldn't be too bad.
