Hey! Spent a fair bit on the car last month and now im turning attentions to the bay to spruce it up to immaculation.

Though Hit bit of a dilema choosing a colour for the hoses, ancillary + coolent. So your opinion on what would suit it most would be excellent! Im crossed between either white, black or red.

But you think white will be tacky? and get dirty easy?

Bear in mind ive ordered a fair bit of chrome/polished parts for it, so looks a tad different from in pic. Rocker cover, Powersteering pump, headertank etc. and going to order the hoses today

Blue, Red, black, Yellow, Gold, White or orange

Leave them alone. Black is best so puttig silicone ones in is a waste of money.

Buy a new cam perhaps?

LET it!

Red hoses looked fine on my white nova, should look great on that aswell.

Also dont add any chrome/polished parts. Will just look tacky on a stunning standard example like that! Give everything a nice coat of silver and black.

Guy with an RX7 had some white hoses made up, looked awesome but was a nightmare to keep clean. Can also discolour after a while.
