Not 100% sure yet. Ive got some ally sheet that I was gonna make some mini brackets with BUT my front calipers/discs are different from the standard coupe ones so my solution might differ from Nigels

I've just ordered a set of these: (thanks MiniPit ) - 0000482811 : left mounting - 0000482810 : right mounting - 0000482731 : left deflector - 0000482730 : right deflector Cost ~£24 and a couple of days waiting for the parts to arrive. They'll not be fitted for my day at Silverstone but I'll let people know how I get on when I do get my hands on them

Have you fitted them yet?
I was wondering whether it would be possible to alter the bracket somehow to allow it to fit onto both caliper bolts?

I was hoping that a bit of filing might do the trick. I was worried that the whole thing might rotate around just a single bolt fixing (particularly with the force placed on it when doing 120+mph on track )?

I'm more than happy to try them out, Marco I've just forked out for a new set of discs ready for Friday (after wrecking my last set of DBAs), and wanted to try to prevent these being wrecked as well. I was therefore hoping to be able to fit the Citroen air deflectors before Friday, but won't have the parts before then. Hence anything that you have to hand that might help will be great And I'll make sure that your cooling set-up gets a proper test on the track

You have any pics of that mount Marco? I think I'll go for a mount + hose to the front. I'm not sure wether the Citroen piece will catch any air on my Coupe, I suspect it´s too low.

the citroen ones should fit well!!
i think it would make no difference if its lower or not!?
just the draft under the car will be funneled into the vent going to the disc!
