Kill ALL the Cones!
While it is wishful thinking, it would be awesome if Ford would make those functional for diff and trans coolers and maybe a small duct to the rear brakes if they ever had them as an option on the S550. It would have a home on the future track oriented variant too...I don't unerstand why people conclude thst a vent behind the front wheel is associated with a car's braking. Vents mounted behind the wheels are there to reduce Under Hood Air Pressure and Extract Heat from the Engine Bay. They have nothing to do with Brake Cooling. Brake Cooling Ducts for the front wheels are typically mounted in the outboard corners of lower front valance, where the Fog Lights are being mounted on the 2015 Mustang. Typically a Duct is routed from that opening to the inboard side of the wheel where the Cooler Air is Forced Through the Wheel, Across the Brakes and is then Exits through the Open Spokes of the Wheel. This is also where the Mustang's "C Scoop/Hockey Stick" and the Upper Quarter Panel Scoop on the 69 Fastback came from. It was designed to Emulate Rear Brake Ducts seen on European Sports Cars which used the same principal. Sadly they were all just for styling purposes on the Mustang.
