Air ducting - where to find/ideas?

Hi Guys,

 

I've been thinking about adding some air ducts into my front bumper, i could use this for a Auto cooler or perhaps extra feed to the airbox i've not decided yet.

 

It's more of a interest to see what is available or if something can be made to fill the holes around my intercooler.

 

I've photoshopped the red areas here to show where the ducts could go:

I thought, perhaps some flat sheet Carbon fibre with a circular duct in the middle would be the easiest option, but i wanted to post here to see if anybody knows of anywhere what sells ducts which maybe similar in shape to the opening here?

 

Would having these ducts take air away from the intercooler? (least resistance) and all that, but i expect a gaping hole wouldn't help either.

 

It would also be interesting to hear other peoples thoughts about how to do this, would be nice to have a discussion about it.

 

Thx

Thanks, i did search but didnt find this, awesome.

 

To be honest, I'd block those areas off to aid in ducting for the IC, and put ducting in the side vents.

 

I thought about that.

 

But i was thinking the side pods could be good for other things such as a future oil cooler or PS cooler etc.
