the first one I did with the help of a friend, didnt have any type of air director and still doesnt, it has never overheated and I talk to the current owner 2-3 times a month.

for all mine since, I build an air director. in town we have a aircraft surplus called "the yard" and they sell sheets of kydex, which is a super flexible abs. if you try to bend typical abs it gets those white stress marks and can even crack but the kydex stuff can be bent all kinds of ways and snaps back. I am able to close out the splash pan area with it, works great.
