OG brake ducts
Anybody have these? I have a set of brand new brake ducts that go in the fog light area, but I'm looking to run the OG style but can't seem to find any info. These were the ones that were similar to the stock ducts but had a 3" round end on it for hoses. Their site doesn't list the 951 model any more.

The only thing I saw that Broadfoot has are the backing plates. I've got those. The ones I'm talking about replace the factory ducts in the bumper. The look the same where the meet the bumper, but at the outlet side they contour into a 3" round outlet.

Here is a reference to my modifications to the OG-Racing brake cooling kit.

I too don’t see it listed on their web-site anymore.

I've got the OG brake kit installed on my car. Call OG at 703-430-3303 to see if they still stock them.
The install of the ducts was fairly easy. Didn't even have to remove the bumper cover. The backing plates are more of a pain in that they're not pre-drilled, so you get to guess where to drill the holes and hope they line up. And, the backing plate will likely rub on the brake rotor so you'll have to grind it off for clearance (or just let the rotor do the grinding for you). In this case, the Broadfoot metal backing plates may be a better option.
When you install your hoses, be sure to keep them close to the inside of the wheel well to avoid rubbing and keep them as straight as possible for optimal airflow. I, unknowingly, put a severe kink in the hose just before it enters the backing plate for better clearance and trashed a new pair of rotors in 1 weekend.

Thanks Laust, thats exactly what I'm looking for. If OG doesn't make them anymore does anyone know where I can pick a pair up? I really don't need the backing plates (fabricate my own) but I want the bumper ducts.
