Who has the AIR brake cooling ducts?
The ones that sit in the foglight holes. . .

I want to hear about the fitment and quality.
I called to order them, and the way the dude was talking scared me. He told me that they 'would be ok for a race car, but I may not be happy with them on a street car' I asked him to compare the fitment/quality to the splitter they make, and he told me that you 'can't even compare them, one is for a race car one is for street.'
Pics would help as well. . .

I have them. The fit isn't great, I had to cut/file/sand/dremel the outer edge to get them to fit the way I liked. Plus, mounting is totally up to you. The plus side, I think they work pretty well as moving a descent amount of air. I haven't noticed brake fade since I installed them.

Any idea on that OEM part number off the top of your head Jason?

I fit those on my 968.

I added a pair of AIR brake ducts along with twin ducted oil coolers this past winter. I fabed up some aluminum mounting brakets off the old fog light housing and used a 45 deg. silicon hose off the back of the cooling duct to extend back over my oil cooler ducting where i transition to 3" flexible racing hose.

I realize there is a funnel type action happening on those ducts, however they have a lot smaller aperture than the rectangular stock 951 ducts. I am now trying to marry up the stock ducts with a part I bought from Pelican that leads into the 3" duct hose, then onto those backing plates with the same sized spigots. This doesn't look like a straight fit but I can't see what else you would join these new pieces to? I haven't seen them in the flesh yet so maybe it will become more apparent. Anyone else used these?
