These ducts are not for sale as they would not make viable financial sense unless combined with many other pieces including this.

OK, I can understand Not for Sale, so can you just give them to me?

Seriously, they are a work of art!

Wow Humpty Dumpty sure is an engineering masterpiece......How would you begin to get a quote for insurance purposes when they inquire if the car has any modifications.... :-)

A J Sports do something similar but they utilise the hole in the control arm.

If anyone's got the vents from this kit and want to get rid let me know please.

Thanks

This is where I noticed them.

http://www.rennsportsystems.com/1-sf.html

Says they are for a 69-89 911, but I have seen a site that lists you can fit onto the 964 as well.

The Cartridge parts are not the S Car Go parts nor are they similar other than that the S Car Go parts might be carbon fiber (or they might simply be carbon look -- as I have never held them in my hand I would not know). That, by the way, is not meant to suggest that the S Car Go parts are anything but first rate as to design, functionality and fit -- I simply do not know if, for example, (a) they are made such that with a 9.5 " front wheel they will not rub when the steering wheel is turned all the way either way or (b) their ability to catch air and flow it to the most approrpriate places.

Robert,

I am not suggesting that these are 100% carbon fiber and can not vouch for their quality. Although s car go makes good stuff. I was just presenting them as an option.AND they look pretty cool!

I am not suggesting that the S Car Go parts are anything less than excellent. I am just saying I do not know.

you've probably been asked this before but how can you possibly do this? the amount of work involved is staggering....
