They are fixed at the top and bottom using the stock fog light mounting screws/holes. I forget why I added the silver braces - guess I thought they were needed to help secure the ducts.

Still no sets available? I need a set of these
I have a used set minus hoses available. Hardware included.
I'm in Spring, Texas and work in Porter Monday through Friday. PM me if you are interested.
My girlfriend lives off 494 a few blocks north of 1314 before the road closure so that would be convenient, I'm going over there after work today. I'll grab em from you. She's like the closest apartment complex to RP lol
Has anyone installed mesh over the bumper inlets to prevent debris from getting into the duct?
Has anyone had any success finding inlets to fit the small openings in a Saleen front bumper? I've been wanting to add brake ducts to my car but don't know how/where I'm going to attach the inlets.
I did this on my race car, pretty simple install. I used some 1/4" wire mesh cut to approx the shape of the housing and bent the excess wire around the plastic foglight housing then reinstalled the housing in the bumper. I rattle canned the mesh black before installing it.
For the Saleen front bumper, Id look at some of the NACA inlets to find a square one that will fit the square opening. Measure the openings and then post the dimensions up here and I'll do some looking to help you find something that will work and look good too.
Hello just wondering if your Brake Duct kit works with an 07 GT 500? Thanks.
I had also put some mesh over my inlets, but after a year of having gravel and rubber thrown at them they were bent to hell and falling off so I ended up removing it.
Find something strong and attach it well!

My backing plates do not but Im finally planning on a re-design this winter and will design a 05+ mustang kit this winter. Finally getting a few 05+ mustangs around here in BFE Kansas. :nonono: Tough to design a backing plate with out a car here to mock things up to.
word!!!!
I'm going to do a redesign on the backing plates and possibly up the backing plate/hose size to 4", this is mostly due to the opening on the 99/01 cobra bumper bezel only measuring 2.75" while the foglight opening is closer to 4".
I also noticed after the last race at MPH the white "BREMBO" lettering on my 4Piston Cobra R calipers is now a lighter shade of tan. I'm also thinking about routing the 3" hose behind the spindle to cool the caliper itself.
Stay tuned. :beer:

I'm interested in how people are routing their hoses to keep from rubbing.
Put a ziptie around the tie rod but dont tighten it down yet. Place another ziptie around the ducting and thread it through the zip tie on the tie rod.
I think the zip ties on mine are about 6" inside the tie rod end. Leave the zipties loose enough so you can adjust them if needed and turn the wheels lock to lock.
The zip tie on the control arm will help the ducting move with the steering. Be sure the leave enough slack to allow the ducting to move when the wheel is turned.
Hope this helps.

Same here, if they are discontinued I will pay for a copy of the schematics so I could make my own.
Im going through a redesign. Ive done it before from the original design.
I hope to develop a 4" true race duct setup and an Open track 3" setup.
Stay tuned.

Cool, so you will offer the kit that goes into the smaller holes beside the fogs on 99/01 Cobras still correct?
