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?

I can supply fibreglass and carbon. The ducts will be made and depending on your pipe routing you could use them for cold air feeds if required.

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)

Not yet no they are on my to-do list, we have loads of projects coming up soon but with the busy workload we have its hard to get the new ones finished. I'll let you know when they are done
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 ,
