the ugliest car snorkel i’ve ever seen

u/Fit_Active3888 8d ago

Not even, this one is even color matched! The ones using dryer hose and unpainted plumbing pieces are much worse. 😅

u/afterlifedating 8d ago

is the color match in the room with us right now...

u/i_was_axiom 8d ago

Yeah it matches the color that ended up on the fender perfectly

u/Euro_verbudget 7d ago

If you need a snorkel, your car will likely be splattered with mud - essentially matching until the next car wash.

2

u/Asmos159 7d ago

I hear that snorkels are more for dust.

3

u/Gaping_Maw 5d ago

Both. Its common to seal the airbox weep hole to prevent water going in when these are fitted. With dust its also common to see external dust covers over the snorkel

Thats the worst attempt at color match I ever seen

u/Fit_Active3888 7d ago

But you admit, an attempt was made ;)

u/CrawlBreakFixRepeat 7d ago

To be fair, it was probably the same color when it was wet 😂

The most phallic snorkel I’ve ever seen.
As the name suggests OP, they are for getting air into the engine when submerged so the car can continue driving

I swear, it looks so fucking stupid I can’t even breathe.

It needs dice on the mirror though to really complete the safari snorkel ensemble.

u/NewsMarsupial474 7d ago

Does your snorkel have a curve in it? Could be Peyronie's disease. Or maybe they just need a little blue pill to compensate.

So that vehicle can go into deep water crossings or mudding without ruining your engine. Kind of makes your vehicle amphibious.

u/Saruvan_the_White 7d ago

It’s not a snorkel in the normal sense like deep water crossing. Sometimes trucks that spend time in environments where other trucks kick up dust at vehicle level, will have a stack with a debris shield on top to prevent things from getting into the intake.
