Cool idea so far. But please tell me that is plastic gutter stuff and not aluminum. It looks plastic, but just checking.

Did you chew the hole in your fender? Just don't drive to close to rocks or trees or lay it on it's side because that plastic will shatter.

Do they make an adapter so that it works with regular PVC?

As far as strength goes, just take a hammer to a peice. If it bends=good. If it breaks=bad.

awesome thing about the piping is it is very flexable and cheap. if i break it i can replace the whole system for under 15 bucks.
