They look convincing, how flexible are they?

You may also want to look on eBay under model boats. These waterproof rubber concertina tubes (sorry, they have a name!!) are used to allow rudder control rods to exit the boat's sterns and can be bought in all shapes and sizes and are very low prices. Hope this helps too.

That seemingly minor detail is the proverbial silver bullet for Chally owners.
It looks better, and will behave like the real thing on a tank with recoil.
How does it take paint Mr 750 ?

Hi not sure on paint they only came in the post yesterday I think I will leave black as not to sure how rubber will deal with paint, these are the only thing I have found that are closest to correct size and I have tried quite a few as my DIY toolbox is full of them . I am sure the others will come in handy in future.
