The Cayenne GEMBALLA dilemma

[ALX1]

Hi everyone!

This is my first post on this forum, and I must say that I'm pretty excited to see such a large Porsche community! Getting down to "business", I was thinking to start out small, for my first intervention. My dilemma is this: could anyone please help me figure out what kind oh hose clamps these are, and who manufactures them?(you can see them in the picture-the pretty looking, purple ones) I haven't bothered asking Gemballa himself, because I'm in somewhat of a feud with him right now, so I figured that you guys might be able to help me out... It would be great if you could! Thanks!

Try these guys.

Clamps like that fall under the category of "Engine Dress-up" in most car catalogs, parts stores, etc.

Or if those are tube connectors, these might work.

Thank you for the help guys! I have managed to figure it out! For those of you who are interested, these are Adel Wiggins anodized aluminum clamshell clamps(a bit long, I know...).

P.S.: Unfortunately, the engine in the picture is not mine, because I managed to crash my GT750 last year(as you can see in the avatar), and I will probably have it back from Gemballa some time soon. I will post some fresh, authentic pictures with it then. :)

I noticed the picture in the Avatar...didn't want to ask. Engine in the pick looks hot though! Please post pics when you get yours back from Gemballa...I take it you're located in the UK?

All the best,
