Thanks for the feedback! I was planning on doing that when I install the EBC. But I might as well do it now

if you're doing ebc it's even easier because you don't even need to move the source

That heater hose in the last pic has already been shortened/modified.

You should wrap something around the pipe going through the inner fender. It will wear through pretty quick.

Get a 6"-12" piece of rubber hose, cut it length wise, and line the hole you cut with it.

Don't listen to theclit, a piece of inner door jam rubberized trim is best.

Would anyone be interested in buying out the deposit on my NA 1.8 + oil lines order at a discount? I have $1185 invested, awaiting shipment so $400 would be due to clear that balance.

Suffice it to say life events have come up.

If if you don't want to allow this I understand, and I'll still take delivery of kit and resell. Just seemed wasteful to ship it twice if someone out there wanted one and has been on the fence.

Whatever you use, make sure to make it's snug enough to eliminate relative movement between the pipe and the fender, otherwise it'll still wear through, it'll just take a little longer. I would round the edges of the hole too.

Sale is over and all 10 spots filled up. I will be driving to Atlanta this weekend to hand deliver a setup to a customer. Then to Jersey the following weekend to deliver 2 more setups, and to stop and pick up parts in MD to build setups for all the rest.

Thanks a ton for all placed orders.
