Looks like you read the GM service manual...you don't need to take the whole knuckle off the car. Just separate the lower ball joint so you can get to the wheel bearing bolt hiding behind the ball.
Anyway, it looks like you got it right. After it is on the car, with the rotor and brakes installed, you will have to bend it a bit to get the closest rotor fit you are comfortable with.
Check the wheel clearances at full lock. I found that the DRM ducts need to be as low as possible (and jammed into he shock mounts) to get lock to lock without rubbing the duct extensions. I believe GM does a horrible job placing the shock mounts (at least on my car) as they are on weird and different angles on both sides.
You will also hate the hose fit. The DRM hose is much larger than the LG spindle duct fitting. I just wrapped my spindle duct with friction tape until the fit was close. Others have obtained smaller hose that fits the LG spindle ducts and slips inside the DRM duct extension. I will do this after the DRM hose starts to wear.
They do work. What are you doing for brakes now that you have all that cooling?
Good luck
