what do you have the hose attached to at the brake? Is there a bracket you installed? Do you have any pics of that?

Stillen was a real pain about selling just that portion of the kit to me, but finally did once I got to the right person

And chance a pebble will be thrown up and go as far as to ding the rotor/get caught between the pad?

Installed my Nismo RC ducts last Friday and will be running the hoses from the ducts to the brakes this weekend. I'm inserting a piece of screen (Lowes hardware dept) between the duct outlet and the 4" to 2" reducer to keep debris away from the rotor.

Just drill a 3" hole on the dust shield: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/aa...2160/overview/

it's all you need and a few rivets!!

Tread back from old'.

@Chops: Kyle sorted everything out for me.

@Martin: We don't really have dust shields from the factory to do that.
