My buddy has one on his '08 JK Rubicon (after hydrolocking the motor at 5000 miles...) He painted it to match and it looks and functions very well. In my opinion, the XJ version doesn't look good cosmetically. Too rich for my blood either way, but my buddy is very happy with his. It's sweet. He hasn't had it on long enough to wack it on a tree yet, but given his track record, it's not too far off. I will let you know if it survives

If you give me $150 and a week or so, I will make that piece of shit for you and even make it look just as awful. Please, please, please don't bolt that to the side of your Jeep.

I don't think there is any benefit to going with aluminum for a snorkel. Go with the Airflow on DPG's website. I have it and it works wicked good, and looks a hell of a lot better than that thing.

boy you'd have to have some really shitty taste to actually bolt one of those monstrosities to your Jeep.

It looks like a freaking industiral gutter stuck on there. That is almost as bad as that dude who made his own out of lowe's flex pipe and PCV.
