Monty,
Well done. Thanks for doing the test-fit. They look great.

Why didn't you go for red? More chance of a colour clash if the shade wasn't right?

Just thought red would just be to much and blue was a good colour contrast, but now i`ve got to change all my red hoses that i got of darren :roll:

Monty,
hoses look great,how long did it take?
I've gone for ' RED ' so if your looking to off load some of your red ones i would be interested.Unless there already spoken for or your keeping for spares.

Thanks Roger

Roger,

Took me about 5-6 hours in total, but still need to check them and then drain again to put Anti freeze back in again :evil:

The other hoses are not by Samco there SFS which Darren had sorted for his carbon fibre IC pipes. Here`s a pic of some of the silicon hoses. If u`r interested PM me and u can have 1st digs at them once i`ve got my replacement

Good effort and look good on the car, I've gone for black so shouldn't be too loud under the bonnet. Look forward to them arriving in due course.

Have you got a shot of the engine bay with the two main pipes (plenum-intercooler & airbox-turbo) back in place?

just wondered how much of the red gets 'hidden'.

Paul has had a hard time getting intouch with certain person at Samco over the last week to try and get Grahames S2 hose back, anyways think thats arrived at Pauls house today and i`m sure the other hoses will be in production. I`m sure paul will give them another ring cause he`s only fit for an office job :-D
