They were saying that it is basically for improving aerodynamic efficiency. Pretty useless for me on a street car under normal highway speed limits. Reminds me somehow the persistence to go with the big rear carbon wing in the BRZ tS. These solutions are just for the looks and adding to the wow effect (real vents!), but without much effect in reality. They can work only in race tracks like the Nürburgring Nordschleife where you can go top speed.

Brake cooling will be a small side effect of these vents, but without proper air ducts it won't be optimal at all.
