Hey everyone,

Just got my teener a couple days ago. LOVE IT! It runs fine, almost everything works, handles amazingly. I have an aftermarket Earl's oil cooler in the front trunk and noticed that the hoses ran in the front right wheel well - completely exposed to rocks, etc. Is this normal? Can I just put some sheet metal or something over the hoses? Anyone else experience this?

Thanks,

Corey

are they braided steel-sheathed hoses?
if so, don't worry.

if they're just FLAPS rubber oil hose, some kind of cover couldn't hurt.
enclosing them completely will affect their ability to radiate heat, so maybe something like a nice hardware cloth (or stainless steel mesh if that's in your budget) would be nice.
