Solutions to the short 90 degree fuel line on 3.2

Has anyone sucusfully DIY'd a solution to the short 90 degree fuel line on the Carrera? Pelican Parts - Automotive Parts and Accessories - Porsche & BMW

I've been using Gates Barricade FI hose and oetiker clamps to refurb the "T" and crossover lines but can't get a piece of hose to bend without kinking. I did see that Gates sells a "unicoil" product to make custom bends but it seems to be marketed as heater not fuel hose. Gates Unicoil - when curved/molded hose isn't available. - Hose - Products | Gates Corporation



Has anyone found an off the shelf 90 degree FI / multi fuel rated hose that can be cut to fit?

Yep, Len is a great guy but I was looking for something I could run out and buy. If nothing else materializes I'd be happy to use his services.

I took a piece of tubing and made a 270 deg loop rather than a 90 deg. Worked great.
