I'm not saying that those are pictures of my car, but only that I might know that it's not permanant. "He" had to get the car into the city so that the piping could be made somehow.

You should have at least used ABS pipe, it is meant to tolerate high heat unlike PVC.

It's just for mock up. And it isn't on anything that will see much heat.
