Hey guy's I just recently noticed that samco is now offering camo pattern hoses for the car "coolant hoses, hot and cold side intercooler pipes, etc etc"

I was curious as to what you all thought about them or if any of you have had any experience with them?
I have used samco hoses in the past and never had a problem with them and they seem to hold up well against abrasion,cut's,heat and things like that

Just wanna know what you guy's think about them

 

i think they are ugly and ricey

 

Agreed.. I'd never use those.

 

black is just clean and simple... why draw attention to hoses?

 

x2

 

Unless you are a super MW2 fan and drive around looking like ghost leave them alone.

 

^^^ or fan of a cow. jus sayin'

 

I think their **** and everyone else is hating on them so far I say go with them.

 

Get them if you like them.

 

Then post pic's of them.I see no need for these at all what's wrong with the stock one's? Its like buying a spoiler for your door handle do you really need them?

 

Reason I am buying new one's is because the stockers are starting to crack and in one spot it has almost rubbed through because the kid who had the car before me moved the radiator over a bit and didnt pay attention to the fact that it is rubbing the motor...

I personally like them and will end up getting them as they have a ton of different color camo options, Plus I like that it's something different than the palin old black,blue,red etc that EVERYONE else uses on there car...I also REALLY dont see how camoflauge is "ricey" like some people have said

 

Rice can mean alot of thing's such as tacky part's.Spending mass amount of money on **** that does nothing at all.Having **** done to your car that was cool in 2000 i mean there is alot of diff forms of rice.Normal black hoses look good only way i would buy those was if i had a kick *** looking bay and wanted to add a lil more flar.Other then that they are pointless have no use but look's and cost way more then stock one's. I just hope you dont have a D series motor because then the rice level would jump!

 

Ugly, and way overpriced. I'd much rather buy new, Oem radiator hoses that look better, and cost less.

 

lol, people say these are ugly yet others think custom valve covers are da bomb. :confused:

 

Why do you care what some fat kid behind a keyboard thinks??

 

Who's a fat kid in this thread son?

 

depends on the theme of your bay..if its stock...mehh..

 

Ha... I agree with the others. The camo looks like crap!

 

id rock 'em if they had the camo colors to fit my scheme. i like what haters hate hence why i chose an em2 over the over an em1, eg, ek cuz its toooo common plus everybody hates the 7thgen aka bastard child of the civic. hahahaha i love it and my em2.

 

FWIW I have a fully built N/A gsr motor that is about to get a 100 shot direct port setup once I get off my lazy *** and install and plumb it in the car...I still dont understand your point of it does nothing but look's, going by that statement I assume your car doesnt have a single aftermarket part on it?

 

They actually have a bunch of different camo colors and patterns, These were just the ones I happened to copy a picture of but the color options they have are almost endless

Personally I dont give a rat's *** that people are saying they are "rice" since it's my car I will most likely end up buying them on my next check since like I said I need new hoses anyways since mine are almost rubbed through and I dont need one to take a dump on me while I am driving down the road

 

Black or blue is the way to go.

 

Your going to buy them no matter what. So why do you care what H-T thinks?

 

I have after market part's i just dont buy **** that does nothing for the car.But sit there and look pretty, a hoses that is more then the oem part,does the same thing as the stock part but cost way more is dumb.Really the only way i would buy it was if i was into show car's.

 

match it with a camo valve cover/camo bay and i think it could look pretty sweet. personally i'd get a basic blue or red though
