BMW F2X F3X Front Brake Cooling Kit

RACESAFE Brake Cooling Kit

Fits BMW F2X & F3X Platform

The RACESAFE Brake Cooling Kit for the BMW F2X/F3X platform is a bolt-on solution designed to significantly reduce brake temperatures during aggressive road driving and track use. Developed through extensive testing, this kit delivers consistent braking performance where the factory setup falls short.

Whether you drive hard on the road or regularly attend track days, effective brake cooling is essential for performance, safety, and longevity.

Key Benefits

• Dramatically reduces brake temperatures

• Minimises brake fade under sustained load

• Improves braking consistency and pedal feel

• Extends brake pad and disc life

• Direct bolt-on installation — no cutting or permanent modification

Vehicle Compatibility (BMW F2X / F3X)

Compatible with a wide range of BMW F-Series vehicles, including:

• BMW 1 Series

• BMW 2 Series

• BMW 3 Series

• BMW 4 Series

(Compatibility may vary depending on brake and suspension configuration)

• 2x RACESAFE Lower Control Arm Brake Cooling Scoops

• 2x RACESAFE Laser-Cut Brake Backing Plates (F2X/F3X hubs)

• 2x Lengths of High-Quality Silicone Brake Ducting

• 4x Stainless Steel Jubilee Clips

• Full Hardware Pack (bolts & cable ties)

RACESAFE Lower Arm Brake Cooling Scoops

While the BMW F2X/F3X platform is highly capable, factory brake cooling is limited — especially during spirited driving or track use. Many aftermarket solutions rely on universal scoops with poor airflow and unstable fitment.

RACESAFE developed a vehicle-specific lower arm brake cooling scoop, designed from the ground up to capture clean airflow from beneath the car and feed it efficiently to the brake backing plate.

Scoop Design Features

• Large Air Inlet Area
  Maximises airflow capture from under the vehicle.

• Flow-Optimised Internal Geometry
  Smooth airflow path with no sharp edges to reduce turbulence and drag.

• Vehicle-Specific Fitment
  Designed to integrate cleanly around the BMW lower control arm.

• Integrated Duct Retention Lip
  Allows for secure, tidy ducting installation.

• Fibre-Reinforced ABS Construction
  Strong, flexible, and durable for harsh under-car conditions.

• 51mm Outlet
  Compatible with 50–51mm brake ducting.

RACESAFE Laser-Cut Backing Plates

Brake heat management is a known limitation on BMW F-Series cars during aggressive driving. The RACESAFE backing plates direct cooled air to the centre of the brake disc, improving heat dissipation and maintaining braking performance.

Backing Plate Features

• Precision laser-cut for accurate, secure fitment

• Directs airflow to the disc hat for efficient cooling

• Improves braking consistency during long sessions

Caliper Compatibility

Supplied spacers allow compatibility with:

• OEM BMW steel brakes

• BMW M Sport brake systems

• Aftermarket calipers such as AP Racing and Alcon

High-Performance Silicone Brake Ducting

The included silicone brake ducting is designed for maximum airflow efficiency and durability:

• Smooth internal bore for unrestricted airflow

• External ribbing for flexibility without internal restriction

• Resistant to heat, moisture, and road debris

• Longer service life than traditional ducting materials

Why Brake Cooling Matters

• Reduced Brake Fade – Maintains stopping power under sustained load

• Extended Component Life – Minimises heat-related wear on pads and discs

• Improved Safety & Confidence – Consistent braking when driving hard

Installation

• Fully bolt-on design

• No cutting or permanent modification required

• Compatible with factory and aftermarket brake setups
