Heres another option for anyone considering a snorkel, today fitted a friends D2 with a southdown that we customised in black, and we think it looks pretty cool

 

That's probably the nicest looking snorkel I have seen. Do they make it for the D1?

 

Nice job, did you paint or powder coat it?

 

yes they do, this one was "originally" on my D1, its the same pipe, although its easier to fit on those as you dont need an adapter to go onto the intake like you do for the D2. The series one just has a flexi tube from the bottom of the upright tube all the way to the airbox.

You will see it on my D1 if you look at the link below

I did not do a "full" write up, but heres a "few" piccys of the install etc.

Thanks Mike, its just painted or sprayed I should say, as we work in aircraft maintenance, we "borrowed" some aircraft matt black and the spray booth and away we went

Its pretty dam tuff paint as you could imagine, but only time will tell !!

 

I really like that one. As soon as I win the lottery I am buying one. I bet it would be really cool painted the color of the body although the black to contrast the body looks good too.
