For you guys that are running them, what brand are you using and where did you buy them from? or did you fab them up yourselves? I'm in serious need of some brake cooling and want to get this taken care of before the season starts.

Yea, but I'm planning to try and bust it out myself since Jon is pretty busy with other cars right now. Gotta get my car ready ASAP....lots to do, so little time!

Anyone else??

in my 2002 GT i used the fog light brackets, took out the bulb housing and the back funnels down to a 2.5 inch circle, which is the exact size of shop vac hose. I used that because it is strong, flexible and works well. Then I purchased the Agent 47 cooling duct mounts that bolt right up to the spindle and pushes air into the hat of the rotor. seems to work good total cost was maybe 50-60 bucks

Ian, Lambert automotive, formerly Quantuum, makes a decent spindle adapter, I used it without issue for years. I had custom bumper ducts but Lambert might make those for your car.
