also i need your opinion guys.. imma change out my hoses.... to samco... im thinking of getting "silver" because no one is running it on the forum :tup: everyone does the red blue black hoses.... i think silver would add a lil contrast right? or just keep that stealth black look and go black samco hoses

I was looking at Samco for awhile as well. I think they have a gun metal color. I personally think that would look better than silver. Of couse the have pink and camo as well...

i havent seen it, like you said most are black, blue or red. Gun metal would look way better with your carbon fiber, just like your grounding kit.

btw, i think Samco hoses are hard to come by (not sure why). I talked to Z1 when i was looking for couplers to match their hoses for my intakes and they can get Samco products. If you find somewhere else that supplies them post them here.

well i got a official qoute for the samco hoses... and holey jesus... and its confirmed itll run me about $500 bucks PLUS SHIPPING to do the gun metal option... :ugh2: this would include the 2 upper and lower... 2 overflow tank hoses and 4 couplers.... for my intake... with a beautiful wait time of 6-8 weeks :( i was thinking going all samco rubber in the bay.... apparently the couplers are like 50 bucks each.... i needa rethink these... i just saw the GB for NST pulleys... god im so tempted!!!! but i gotta keep myself in check and make sure im not overspending i needa make sure i have enough money for the shipping for the varis hood... and i plan on painting it right away also when it arrives so id like to set my priorities straight...

install varis hood and paint it
install craftsquare mirrors
down payment to top secret titan strut bar

and i am still waiting on how much top secret wants me to down on the titan bar.... so i better have some reserves that way the minute they pull a number ill just shoot them the money so they cant change their minds ;)

ETD KOBE: 06/22

ETA GUAM: 07/01

JULY 1st!!!!! is the official date for the varis hood :happydance: apparently it actually missed the boat that it was suppose to be on... :shakes head: someone messed up..... but as long as i got a solid date to wait for it :tup: its all good with me

You may wanna check z1 for the couplers, they quoted me $10 each for the samco red. Now given the gunmetal is a "special color" that may have something to do with the increased cost. Just a thought.
