Yo Steve mate - air feed.....

......get down to a local motor factor and ask for exhaust heat ducting (found on most large engine'd 80's motors to feed hot air to air box on cold starts). Basically aluminium piping in loadsa different diameters, but very good air flow, and most important of all.....


.....its Chunky and looks sweet as. Quite expensive at around £3 a foot but looks like you only need 2 foot. Measure the air filter inlet pipe and get piping of a slightly larger size, then jubilee clip it on

You can use standard hammerite on callipers! the special kits are a total rip off. Ive used hammerite on all but one of my cars so far and it's been fine
