Braided Lines? What to Change?

Alright, so I really like the look of braided lines. I was wondering what are all the lines I could change under my engine bay to braided ones. I'm a noob when it comes to this but really think it adds to the look of the engine bay more than just a colored rubber line.



Show some pictures of what you've done if anyone has any.

Just get them to replace the stock rubber brake lines and the clutch line. That is all you need. Spend that money to go faster or on tires and go drive.

Honestly, this is just my DD at this point in time and I feel like I'm fast enough for now. I want to work on some show mods for once.

There's an article in the October 2008 issue of DSport on performance plumbing. Worth a read.

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
Contact antilag_200 -- he did up his whole engine area with braided lines.

I get almost all my ano-tuff fittings, hose ends, and prolite 350 lines from anplumbing.com

The few parts that Earls doesn't make parts for (usually metric to AN adapters), I get from jegs.com. I also use Jeg's anodized black hose ends for -4 lines as well since Earl's doesn't make a -4 swivel.
