Is that what I think it is?

This yellow 458 Speciale came to our show on Saturday. Beautiful car, and the owner was very nice. He knew my friend (the other organizer), so we chatted for a bit. Anyhow, our photographer noticed something I did not see at the time: these two little gunmetal grey bars in either front grill. I’m fairly certain they’re police radar/lidar jammers. Anybody care to concur or offer a different theory?

IIRC they are some kind of cooling ducts which open if more cooling is needed. I believe they are for the brakes.

If the car doesn’t have a forward parking system... it does now!

(Those are laser jammers)

They look like jammers, but why are they silver? Or is that a reflection? I’ve only ever seen black ones.

Well don’t use them on Federal roads, using a radar jammer is a federal offense that can result in a $50,000 fine and/or five years in prison. Then there are local laws, have to check you area. I found this:

While radar jammers are illegal in all 50 states due to federal law, laser jammers/scramblers are regulated by states. Currently, these devices are legal in all states except California , Colorado , Illinois , Minnesota , Nebraska , Oklahoma , South Carolina , Tennessee , Texas , Utah , Virginia and Washington.

Can’t reply to your latest post - would you edit it to add a title, just to see if that’s the issue?

I think the idea is that you’re supposed to scramble them long enough to drop your speed, but not too long, so it just seems like the device was struggling for a moment before it gives the cop a nice, happy, legal speed that you were definitely not doing a moment ago.
