RealWheels Truck Parts and Accessories

prices start at $77

I am soooo ready to diy a set of these.

Question:
I know from the Infiniti forum that some of the guys had problems with warpped rotors. But I know these were the hotrodders.
If I ran a clear disc I can assume that there will be greater heat buildup.
I remember back in the late 60s Carol Shelby had a air duct installed in the rear body panel to force air onto the rear pads.
I have a full under belly pan with little angled factory mini dams infront of the tires. Could I run a small duct to point air toward the disc brake to over come the heat from the clear shield?
