Hose covers? What are my choices? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I was thinking of wrapping /Covers over some of my hoses, The factory uses a nice black cover, I am not sure if I want to go stainless or Black but I am having a hard time finding ones that will work, I don't want to get crazy but would like to dress it up a little.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Check in here Joe, see if you can find anything that will work. We have a few Mustang owners here that have done ALL the small hoses under the hood with color matched split tubing. Some look alright, some have gone a bit too far!! Over kill.. lol

I am looking for the stuff the factory put on it is more like a fabric and it i black in color. I am seeing similar stuff for electric wires but its to small.

Do you mean braided hose covers like these blue ones I used on mine?

Joe.G · 07-22-2023, 02:06 PM

Yes but probably in Black.

I got mine as an old stock Mr Gasket hose kit, but it's not made any more. However, you can buy it by the foot from Amazon. Here's a link for you. It does unravel at the ends, so I used heat shrink tube at the ends of mine to lock it down and make a clean termination. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=PET+Expan...f=nb_sb_noss_2

I'll have to figure out what Size I will need, I did order some of this with a few different sizes but they appear way to small.

Do an Amazon search for this below- only $39.99 for 50 feet, $25 for 25 feet. Plus any tax. Can do radiator hoses with it. I'm assuming that's what you're looking for? They also have 1.5" as well.

I wanted to do the lines going to my catch can mainly. I ordered 1/4 1/2 and I maybe 3/8 and it's to small. I thought the 1/2 would work next size I am seeing is 3/4.
