Calling all vendors - front brake ducting

That to me looks very cheesy. If I did something like that I would want it to look like quality. Just my .02

WTF does it matter what it looks like when you're trying to cool your rotors for track use?? This is strictly function over form for about $15/side.

Doing this for street use, or to impress your ricer friends is beyond the scope of my intentions...

as opposed to all the elegant brake ducting kits on the market?

to the OP, the problem right now is the lack of decent track pads for the 'big' calipers - perhaps that will change in the future, but there is not a wide range to choose from.
