You do realize that this concept uses low velocity and low density air flow versus brake ducts where intakes are mounted in the front bumper of a car, do you not?

The data showed they are effective. Many high performance cars use the same concept including a McLaren 720S I saw up on a lift. Nearly every 911/boxster/cayman, Corvettes, etc. Of course, the effectiveness does depend on how low the car is to the ground. For your typical dual purpose street/track car that is at a reasonable ride height, they work well. For a dedicated track car that's an inch off the ground running a big splitter, probably not so much.

This is what they look like on my 997 Turbo. Basically a curved sheet of plastic around the front of the LCA. (Picture taken through the driver's side front wheel.)

You mean this? 00-09 S2000 Spindle Duct Kit [07043DK] - $75.00 : Lambert Automotive Performance Products

It looks like it's still meant to connect to a hose that would route to a front inlet.
