Ian - I don't know how to do that.

I didn't duct it inside because I want to be able to pick up radiator exhaust, etc.
But I will say that I have probably 56 hours work into increasing cooler efficiency.

I'm not 100% sure, but, it looks like an A.I.R nose panel? That's the one I am installing on my car, soon.

This is the AIR nose panel on my car: http://www.darklightning.com/gallery...erior/IMG_1756

The AIR has smoother edges than Special Tool's and is more rounded (ovaled).

There is no way thats an AIR panel that you would buy from them

I would say its more likely to be a custom jobby...

PS post more pics ST!

Looks like the header panel Performance Products offers.
I think the duct is great but would look cooler if it were color coded to the exterior paint. I'm not much for unpainted Carbon.
Still, very cool!
