997 GT3 brake duct spoiler?

[terryb]

I've read several posts on brake cooling using either air scoops with hoses or using the 993 air deflector, but yesterday a trusted wrench said that he's heard that the 997 GT3 brake duct spoiler also works on our cars and is a bit more aggressive at channeling the air. Has anyone tried using them? They're cheap enough that I'm tempted to get both styles and see.

Here's one side of the 993 part #99334108400, $12.75/ea from Wayne

I just did a search and expected to find a bunch of folks with GT3 brake duct pics. Nope, just this thread. So does this work? Any one with pics of GT3 scoops on a G body?

Since nobody replied, I threw down a whooping $7 to give it a try. Not sure if they'll drag the ground or not. I'll add some zip ties to help protect my $7 investment. (P.S. Don't give me crap about my red painted 930 calipers!)

Nice find, I expect it to work by having a look at the design ;-)

Nice. I have 993 deflectors zip tied on 84 A-arms. I can attest this kind of things work as my brake pad wear substantially decreased at track abuse. What i would like to do is something similar to the rear. wimpy 84 rear brake pads need some love.
