A side benefit of the wheel donuts is that it does cut down on the brake dust on the rims, but the main use is for venting air as already mentioned.

The car is beautiful, except the wings, wtf?
...and why the hell does it have a dozen hood clips? Hood clips? I thought those were dead with the mustang II. Imagine how much it will scratch the **** up. I hate clips, had 'em on my old prostreet Nova, stupid, stupid. Aerodynamics are so tight you gotta have wings on the side but you have a bunch of clips.
