If you were one of the lucky people to order one of the 1,000 available new Ford Shelby GT500KRs, you’re getting an extra treat with your purchase.

The good folks at SVT, the company that created the awesome suspension tuning for this particular model, are supplying a Ford Racing front brake ducting kit. This might not seem like much to the layman, but it’s actually a pretty nice deal for people who are buying these Ford cars for racing or simply showing off on the road. The braking kit is designed to keep brake discs cool by letting the air flow through the system and increasing its effectiveness.

But it also has a showy feature as well. Ford engineers included orange ribbed duct tubes to the kit. When you pull up next to another car, the orange shows through the wheel and other drivers know that you definitely mean business!

SVT designed this brake kit specifically for the 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang. And to make the extra gift even more special, the company put it in a little white box in the trunk. So when the owner opens it, it feels just like somebody bought them something special for their new Mustang.

The best part about the kit is that it’s easy to install. If you know what you’re doing, it’s little more than a couple bolt-on clamps. Instead of just installing the kit at the factory, Ford said that most drivers will simply use their new Shelby GT500KR for cruising around the streets. The automaker wants the driver to know, however, that their vehicle is ready for anything, whether it’s racing, cruising or simply getting attention at red lights.
