Lightbulb Snorkel Fab Party?

Hey guys...Ive had a few members ask for a little help with fabbing up a snorkel for their Jeep, so I thought I would see if there were enough people who wanted to get together for a Snorkel party.

Naturally, those who want to come visit (but dont want to cut up their Jeeps) are welcomed also. We'd just get together at my house, grill some burgers, guzzle some brew, fish in the bay out front or the canal out back, compare Jeeps/mods...and of course make some snorkels.

No date is set yet, but it would be early summer.
we want to work around peoples schedules if possible, so we can have as many come at once.
Need to get a head count first.


EDIT: we can also make tube doors for those who don't want snorkels! I should have the designs for the rears sometime this week!


Note: everyone will be responsible for their own supplies for their own projects. I will provide a list for everyone. People may pool resources to buy in bulk from supplier to save money.
I will receive no compensation for any of this, and will provide food/ fishing tackle/ location/project plans. Alcohol may be brought but will not be provided.

how much cheaper is it to fab a snorkel than to buy one already?

depends on what all you want to accomplish with it.
You can knock one out for less than $100 easy.

You get into interchangable intakes, skulls, K&N filters, etc....then your cost will be greater.
I guess the best thing for me was that I got to make it myself, get the best possiblel airflow and performance, and make it look however I want!
