I'm after a decent quality reverse scoop for a bugeye something like the RCM one for blobs:
Also you can get carbon flaps as fitted to mine:
Flexible and robust, my fronts now hit the floor on every corner!

[QUOTE=coco08;11051368]I'd prefer if they weren't in carbon as I'd be painting them and if they were cold air feeds rather than brake cooling ducts

How do these actually duct cold air to the brakes? Surely it would hit the tyre surface and be dispersed - wouldn't it need piping taking the cold air form the intake to about an inch from the caliper?

Not sure in the photos but that is the ideal way to do it, some small ducts direct to the front brakes held in place to help cool quicker. I suppose the same could be used for a cold air feed you'd just need to re-route the ducting.

We are looking to use our too more for induction than for brakes
Not sure,but when I've look on this,there is in the way arch linner,with which you can't use those ducts for cooling the brakes(yes you can,but you will need to use some flexi hoses)

What about these. They used to make them in carbon fibre. Matching fog light ducts, with removable covers, would be nice.

I'll Defo take a set in fibreglass , for anyone wondering if they will work with a fmic If your patient enough you can have them , I managed to retain my PIAA driving lights and surrounds after fitting my fmic , took a while and a fabrication of brackets but it all works ,
