Default Cup Car Brake Duct DIY

Anyone have any pictures of their installed cup brake ducts? I need to install them and before I get going, I always like a visual.

Just look at how the OEM ducts are installed and install the Cup ones in the same way. It's a piece of cake!

You'll want to use two zip ties as well. Just need to drill some holes in the plastic.

Not sure if you can see in my picture but I drilled a small hole at the top of the duct about the mid point of the leading arm and then ran a zip tie through it and around the arm. The zip isn't pictured but the hole is. I must have taken this pic before I ran a new zip tie through it.

I thought that was the hold Dell was referring to. Thanks for highlighting that Rob. Nice job!

When I bought my ducts from viperbob, he described them as Motorsport ducts. Does that apply to either the RS or Cup ducts, or is it one specific set?

I thought I saw a GT3 cup duct on the pit out lane at Laguna off the front straight....I have to say I laughed at the fact I knew it was a GT3 cup duct, even driving by at pit out speed.
