Like hansaysso mentions, the ducts are fairly well centered on the wheel/brake area.
I doubt there is enough space to fab a hose there w/o causing interference.

& I'm not sure how much benefit you would really gain.
Titanium backing plates is also a good heat reduction method, if you really need it.
InTgr8r, I don't know if you have an interest in better brake cooling? I am considering tracking my Z4M and would like to augment the good brake performance of our stock brakes noted by several trackers, with cooling. Previously I tracked an STi. A guy named Randy Zimmer designs and manufacturers aftermarket Brake cooling for Subaru's and several other car models called RooDucts. He has now developed brake cooling fans he claims work well. Randy was great to work with. I purchased one of his first sets for my model year Subie. The reason I am addressing you, Randy is located in Buffalo, NY. If we had someone close to Buffalo visit Randy, he could quickly evaluate if the Brake cooling fans would fit on our cars.

Just a thought. Let us know what you think.
