Actually your the second guy to say he wants one before next season so i guess i'll make a batch this week. only takes a few hours to a make a few but i do it on the clock when i have time so shhhhh!
I used $25 worth of ducting and hose clamps from Home Depot.

It's cold outside mang! i'll see if the flash gets a good pic here in a few. Oh and i just screwed some 6" to 4" cone looking ducts to my front bumper.

here are a couple pics. i basically drilled 3" holes on the main frame rails on top, bottom, inside and outside. You can also see in one pic where i cut off the bumper support brackets(those were REALLY heavy).

If you take your fenders off your car there these smaller steel "fenders". sort of like reinforcment fenders. i've seen some people swiss cheese them but i cut them completely off.
