yes those are the more difficult parts of making this kit. I will be vacuum forming the front ducts this weekend hopefully (already have the design sketched out) and as far as how it mounts up to the rotor/calipers isnt too difficult either. depending on rain (dont have a garage) I will be test fitting those fittings as well this weekend.
once i get a few things actually made, and not just my sketches, I will throw up some pictures.
Actually if am performance has pics of their brake set up on the site how I am cooling the rotors is very similar to that. It is how we did it on some other road race cars that I have been a part of in the past.
