I'm thinking if i could fab/ put something similar to the rear. just looking at the rear, the banana arm kinda gets in the way of where i'd want to put some deflector or a baffle. If i'm successful, i know i'd also be saving pad life for the rear. has anyone got any air baffling example for the rear?
here's what the 997GT3s use on their rear brakes






generally the rears don't run hot enough to warrant additional cooling
