Go to www.aircraftspruce.com and search ducts or ducting. They have all the ducting in different sizes and materials you could ever want. They also have aluminium flanges for hooking stuff up too.

Thanks. It just amazes me we have no ducts at all. E46 had then blocked off, but at least they were there. .

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

Does anyone know if the OEM bmw performance front splitters block the area below where the air ducts would be installed on the bottom of the front spoiler? In other words would installing the front splitters prohibit you from installing brake ducts?

yup. that is why I sold my splitters before installing them. pretty stupid design when one group does not confer with the other group all within the same company.

Use some Ti shields between the backing plate and the piston. It will likely solve most if not all of your problem. I've been using them for 10 years on various cars with great success (reducing heat transfer to the piston, shielding (from a radiation heat transfer standpoint) the dust boots from "seeing" the hot pad backing plate surface, etc. They are especially effective as your pad thickness wears down since the pad material is a highly effective insulator, so as the pad thickness decreases the backing plate temperature (and therefore piston temperature) goes up...a lot by the time the pads are thin.
