The hose would only be required maximum for a week, to make a mandarel tool. After that I'd return it to you along with the very first silicone hose as a thank you

Since my production capicity is limited, and because I make all sorts of different products, let's first of all start with that single hose and later we can think about other products. As I won't be able to develop them all at once, which would leave me with the original samples for a long time. And I don't want to have them for very long, so they won't be misplaced or lost.
Since my speciality is custom air intakes, I can design a proper cold air intake for it, but this is much more expensive and I'd need at least 5 buyers to cover the initial development and production costs, otherwise it won't be economically beneficial to make these for me at all.
Yes, the silicone is more flexible and so does not require the corrugated part. Plus is smoothes the airflow a bit.
My production facility is based in Klaipeda, Lithuania. So not that far from Germany
