Default Which snorkel to buy? reviews/pics please

So I know ARB Safari snorkels are supposed to be the best. But I would really rather not shell out the $500 if I don't have to.

I found this: http://www.jeepinoutfitters.com/scri...?idproduct=550

Was wondering if anyone had it/had heard of it. If its a POS and is gonna fall apart on me, I'd much rather spend the little bit of extra cash for something that's gonna last.

Thanks all

My vote is:
Go to Home Depot, buy some ABS, and build your own...

ive already had to drop one new engine into the XJ, really would rather not risk doing a poor job and having to drop ANOTHER 2500 in lol

Yeah, if your going for a clean professional look, home made is probably not the way. I mean, I can make something look clean and tight, but not nearly as much as something that has had thousands of design hours and R&D poured into it...
