Default Z06 brake duct

Is there any one that I could go to that will do a functional rear brake duct install on a 99 coupe?

I'm not sure, but Rich at Abel Chevrolet might be able to help. I'm not sure, but I do know they can at least make sure you have all the factory GM stuff!

I just removed the rear ducts from my ST2 race car because they weren't needed. After my wreck at T-hill I lost my right side brake duct and left it off. I went to Miller for 2 days with only the left side duct in back. After 2 days both rear brake pads and rotors looked the same so I taped off my rear duct inlets for better aero. At Buttonwillow I raced in 100 degree weather with no rear brake ducts on either side and the rotors and pads still look fine. Just my observations. I think others have said they do help a little, but I found I can do without them.
