I have the rivit gun and aluminum rivits. Problem is I can only find bare aluminum rivits. Still looking for black rivits... ideas?

I'll probably use a Sharpie. Guess if it wears off I can touch it up pretty easily. Ever get that feeling in your stomach when you're about to drill a hole (or 10) in your car...

How about an iinsert to take stock R1 brake duct opening and duct it to 2" hose to rotor backing plates. The complete kit would be nice. N-Tech has the backing plates and the hose, but not the duct-to-hose piece. This would be something like a 1"x4" opening to 2" hose adapter that could coexist in the FD wheel well opening

Thanks for all of the ideas guys. I will be looking at what I can do this weekend. More ideas are welcome. Never knew there are so many things people wanted!

I used black touch up paint to paint the rivets after installation. You can't find black rivets.

The ducts you want are oil cooler ducts, not brake ducts.
Those are already done.
They work with your pettit copy.

I know someone offers them but I would think this would something you could make (I'd be interested) less expensive than OEM ones.
