Some people on here changed their hoses in their engine to different colors. I would like to do the same. Those who have done it, could you please tell me what sizes I need for all the hoses? Also I'm ordering from Streetglow, has anyone else ordered from them? Is there a better place to order from?

 

ive heard of cheaper/better places, shop around.

 

bought some for another car a long time ago and they were garbage..was like plastic fake chrome looming that is just split down the middle and you kinda fit it around the hose/wire

 

That's actually what I'm looking for where you just fit it around. Not really looking to actually pull all the plugs outta my engine, and replace.

Like?

 

Don't do it, Please...

In your mind, you will think it looks good, but often, the more crap you do to your engine that is useless and cosmetic, will just look like RICE at the end of the day.

 

RICE = Race Inspired Cosmetic Equipment

 

If in his mind it looks good, then who are you to tell him its not? It's not your car. If in his mind it looks good and he likes it, well then thats all that matters.

 

Your Looped if you think your statement is required. Everyone goes through the RICE FAZE, it's a waste of time and it will look like ass...

 

i thought it was Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement

 

Thank you. There are a few on here who have done it. I've seen. And it don't look too bad. Quit being bullies.

And how exactly it it "race inspired"?? It's just a change of color of the hoses.... Nothing "racing" about it. Hey, the engine's gotta look good for car shows right? No one wants to look at a boring stock looking engine bay. Gotta spruce it up a bit.

 

ive never done it so i dont know the sizes or anything but i think i have seen colored wire loom at autozone, pepboys, etc. that might be easier than ordering it if you can get the right sizes.
i believe you are correct lol.

 

its true...i ripped out all the lil blue neons almost a year ago lol...and i know you made your first staement only to give him the benefit of your experience - but if he wants to do it, then let him do it... not hurting anyone

 

Agreed

 

i'm not feeling it personally, but if you have to add color, paint some things tastefully, or replace a few vacuum lines with colored silicone hose, carefully.

 

It's my opinion that split loom only looks good when used very, VERY conservatively. If you really like it, knock yourself out. If you're doing it because you've seen it on cardomain, save your money.

 

Actually I seen it on here. -> http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...7/102_0183.jpg I really don't think it looks that bad..

 

Colored wire looms are so tacky and ricey IMO.....

 

Here's another: http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/c...1/DSC00814.jpg

 

Ick, not for me. I prefer my engine looking plain Jane. I just have a few polished bits.........my AEM CAI, my Ingalls ETD, my Modern Performance polished oil filler cap........I also have a GM body color matched hood strut. I kept it plain and simple and I thought it came out looking sweet.

 

Yes but not everyone has the same opinion. Everyone has their own opinion and that if they want to do something to their car, it's in their own taste. Sure not everyone will like it, but whats important is that the owner him self likes it.

I like to change everything that's stock. I prefer to look different as to be an individual rather than stock like everyone else.

 

Well no duh, hence why I was stating what I thought looked good.

 

I'm sure the original thread starter doesn't care what you think looks good.

Personally I'm not a fan of the wire loom stuff but if it's your thing knock yourself out. Take pics and let us know how it turns out.

 

Never said he cared. Its a forum, people are gonna say what people wanna say.

 

Yeah...that looks like ****. But if you're still in high school I guess I could see how one thinks that looks good.

 

Rice is a matter of opinion and your opinion is ****. So what would we call that?

Rice is so old it is not even funny. Let's see your car, and I'll find stuff that is rice to me. However, you would think it is not rice.
