    Default Silicone Hoses

    I just got my RED hoses from Mike @ Jetttstream. These hoses are unreal. They match the car close and are very shiny. So, I have a thought for you G8ers, what if we could have upper and lower hoses, heater hoses and the coupler hoses for RotoFab in the same exact color. That would be SIC! Now we will have a little color under the hood, an easy mod to do and be getting rid of the funky factory heater hoses in 1 shot. PLEASE post here if you have an interest in this. I will take a pic in natural light tomorrow so you can see the quality.

    I'd take your heater hose kits but with silicon hoses to match my body color in a heart beat! I'd probably take the upper and lowers too. I don't need the coupler though.

    Oh and BLACK is my color.

    Here are some pics in sunlight. Much like my car, the red is so red that it almost looks orange in sunlight/pics. You can see the quality and the thickness in the pics.

    I still need somemore feedback on interest. If we can get 12 people that have an interest, it will allow Mike to figure out cost. Anytime something is being custom made it is always cheaper to get at least 12 or more so it saves everyone $$$$.

    What's the benefit of silicon hoses over regular? Longevity?

    Longevity and look. Our underhood is pretty dull as you know, so I think with the 4 hoses and couplers(even for the PC, he would need to know sizes) that adds a lot of tasteful color to break it up. I will do: 4 hoses and couplers, red coils, polished catch can with red braided hoses ad nickle fittings, red fuel rails and polish all the alum. a/c lines. That should look really good with the STB being highly polished as well.
