OK i went to performance improvments today. I check out there silcone hoes.

I've got the choice between red, black, orange white.....what color should i get?

This is what i think

RED: Big woop my car is red
Black: all the things i want to cover are black anyways
Orange: This might look kind of different...but could look stupid
White: Get's dirty quick

My colour scheem for the car is Red and Black.......i don't know any personaly suggestions are needed!

Funny stuff...

Well there where different bags the littlest one was 7.99$ and what it came with looked like it should cost $0.55. There must be a place we can get this stuff cheap

What about colour combos

Like red and white....will it look "TOO BUSY" under my hood?

This stuff is pretty expensive no matter where you go. Even ordering it online is expensive. Hose techniques has two colours of red, if you're interested.

yeah... Hosetechniques.com charges $55 US, a little bit pricey for just hoses. but the kit comes complete with hoses that are cut to length which are designed especially for our cars which replace our exisiting hoses. Each kit includes: an Installation Guide, color-matched nylon Tie Wraps, Super HoseCutter, Super HoseSlitter and two 6.5" oval decals.

hmm...anybody know any places where they can get hosetechniques stuff in Toronto?

Tell me when you're gonna do this. I'm looking at picking up some of these silicone hoses as well and if you want we could do it together. It might be cheaper to buy it bulk (like by the foot or something)

I'm sure by looking at it we can figure it out. The silicone stuff looks better to me unless you can find some nice connectors for the steel braided stuff. I think there may be twoo kinds of the steel stuff like replacements and sleves.

Hey if you want to do it on the 25th that's cool. We can set up a time and what not, we also go to buy the hoses. I'm gonna see if I can figure out how much we need per car or just guesstimate.
