First - Buy some flexiable plasic tubing and (2) large oval openings for your air ducts. Purchase a good amount of zip-ties approx. 25-40 dont worry you'll have extras $25
Second - Find a decent area to mount your opening preferablly somewhere right in front of the scrape plate, or just cut some away (*yes cut it's well worth it)... Direct "Flexiable" tubing to your front brakes and *Bam* cheap and EFFECTIVE way to keep those brakes nice and COOL

THIS WILL EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR ROTORS AND PADS SO I SUGGEST IF YOU GET THE TIME JUST DO IT and $ave


the rear brakes can be done as well with left over tubing provided you purchased enough, just direct the front of your tubing a little towards the outside *this is not necessary
yea cept for the fact that the slower u go, the less the cooling works till u pick up speed,
