I used a black pen I removed the ink heated it up in different spots to get the contour to fit my honcho.once I got the shape I wanted I wraped it in heat shrink and melted it with a lighter.then drilled a hole were I wanted it and then shogood it into place.

I saw one that was one of those spring-type plastic keychains over a styrene tube bent to shape, then the whole thing covered in heat-shrink. Looked like the flexible rubber hose that some guys use.

I made one for my F350 Hi-lift out of black styrene sheet. Never took pics of the build though.

I was at homedepot today and saw a set of vac. attachments that were really small. Probly for auto detailing and such. anyway the sizes and shapes of them look like they could look really cool as a snorkle. going back in a day or two to get a set, also looks like they might be good for exaust
