Default Custom brake ducts

I'm getting the authentic J's half lip. I was looking at brake ducts, but it appears J's only makes them for the Type S bumper. Does anyone have a write-up with pics on how to make custom brake ducts?
Also, to those who have them, do they make a noticeable difference?

Call King Motorsports - www.kingmotorsports.com. They don't have the custom ducting as an item, but do offer the service.

I don't live anywhere near there, and I assume you'd have to take your car to King for them to make the ducts. Anyone have experience with making your own? Or, just a picture of where the ducts come out at (the end that is closest to the brakes) would be helpful, as I don't know where the most effective place to cool them is.

There may be something over in the Competition and Racing section.

You can ship the parts to King and they'll do the modification there and ship the parts back. Not too expensive either, if I remember correctly.
