Default Air ducts



Hey guys I found this in the trunk of my 2006 Lexus is250 when I got it from auction along with many other parts. I have no idea where they go or if I even need them. Any help would be appreciated.Thx

they look like the ones located in the front bumper. There are air ducts from the front to your wheel well area. Just guessing though

They are the brake air ducts.You have to lift the front of the car,take the under cover engine out and you ll see the two holes on the plastic covers under the fenders in front of the brakes.Fit them in and there are also two screws (left and right)holding the ducts .They just face in front in the under grill of the bumper.Sorry for my English.I hope I helped

Yep, air scoops to cool the front brakes. Draws in air via the lower grill and exits in the middle of the wheel well liner.
