IMO the braided stuff loks nasty, It never fits the hoses properly.
Also a pain in the ass when you get a leak as its really hard to see where its coming from.
Get some samco's dude.

Sorry, Should have worded that better, I meant the slip over stuff looks crap, proper hoses looks cool.

Ok, why not! And if you want a 7 it can be the dodgy cone filter.
