You're welcome!
I've bought it from ebay. If you search as "911 gt3 brake duct" you can find it.

RooDucts

Hi, I make the RooDucts in Buffalo, NY USA. I have two friends with new M2 BMW's if there's a need for ducts to fit. Ones like I make for the BRZ would put air onto the caliper and keep the fluid cooler. For tougher tracks, I could work up a brushless fan setup.

What would the cost be?

I do the FRS/BRZ LCA ducts for $125. The Subaru passive like in the middle picture are $195 and $225. The Subaru fan ducts are $750 for the whole kit. It would depend on how hard they are to make. We'll see.

Do you have this fittable for the rear axle? Considering this or those porsche gt3 ducts.

Thanks!

Is this the fiberglass version?

Did you order direct from BP and, if so, were they relatively easy to deal with?

It is the FRP version, I dealt with BP directly, and it was a seamless transaction to purchase.

Kev, mind letting me know the price incl. shipping? PM if need be?

Do you think this undertray will work with a splitter attached (I have a Lightweight splitter, not sure it'll connect properly with the new undertray).

Lastly, judging by your earlier posts I thought you were 100% happy with your current cooling setup.. guess you're looking for more ?

$904 shipped to New York. I haven't had the time to attempt to mount it yet, but I also have a Lightweight splitter, so I don't know if it's going to work with it yet. I was totally happy with my setup, but I think this may be a more seamless setup. And maybe I won't have to worry so much about knocking the scoops off. Truth is, I don't know when to leave well enough alone! Always tweaking...

I can confirm that the BP Engineering undertray fits like a glove with the Lightweight splitter.

Nice!! It's so good isn't it.

I thought I might share this, after quite a few track days now, depending on your suspension set up it can bottom out and clip the bottom.

I've found this way of mounting to be better, using these rubber coupler things (not sure of the name), in case you find any issues with it coming lose. With just hose clamps it has come off for me in the past.

Looks good and hope rubber couplers are able to withstand the heat.

They work great with no temp issues. I've used these for almost two years

Kev,

More pictures please of LW splitter and BP undertray overlap please.

It looks like LW splitter is deep enough to overlap the front of air ducts which for me is ideal.

Cheers

The black ones look like rubber. The blue looks like silicone. I'd try the silicone ones first. As a suggestion (hoping it helps someone), I have ordered successfully multiple times from this company and have been happy with the product and service (I have no affiliation): http://www.siliconeintakes.com
