Default Anyone put brake cooling ducts on their A4?

Can you post some pictures or at least explain how you did it and where you got the parts?

I saw an S4 this weekend at the track (Spokane Raceway Park) that used the air damn from a Chevy Blazer (or something like that) screwed to the bottom of the stock front bumber. He then ran the cooling duct under the car and stopped it just as it went into the wheel well, pointing it towards the rotor. He also removed the dust shields. Seemed like an OK setup other that I'm hesitant to screw on the extra air damn on my car.

Anyways, just curious what everyone else is doing.

Thanks,
Jason

i'm done with adding the duct on the brake shields and just need to get some time to order the hoses(good looking ones bec my wheels are wide open) but i dont have a colored catalog to pick from.
med NACA ducts are $19 each from most, i got mine from www.pegasusautoracing.com.
what i did was just carved the ducts into the valence, some body build, primer then let the shop paint it. for brake shield ducts, i just opened up a hole by cutting xcross
