hey mate im guessin u are after it for a snorkle yes? try tubesales in thomastown, i lost their addy but its where i got mine from and it cost around 120 for all the piping :D

also if your making a gu style one then this is the best way to go ... sone 90deg bend to enter engine bay and come out along side of car, one 45 to go up windscreen and then a mtr of straight to go up side of car, then another 45 to kick it backwards along roof lining. pm me if you want pics

I just made myself a 3" snorkel last weekend.

Managed to pickup a 2.3 metre length from an engineering mob here in geelong for $80, plus i got a piece of flat to go with it.

Hunt around those sort of places, as i found specialist metal suppliers want round about $80 per metre of the stuff.

yea thats why i went to tube sales, all they sell is ss tubing, and were about 50% cheaper then ne where else i looked, and btw the tube is the cheap part, the corners are more expensive so it kinda works out cheaper if u use tubing then silicone bends ;) but doesnt look the same
