Default Rubber hose connectors for CAI?



I have the Steeda CAI pictured, and I'm curious as to if there are any of those rubber hose connectors (blue) in any other colour out on the market for that specific CAI. They're a really bright blue and they're really messing up my engine bay colour continuity. Anyone seen them in red, or black?

How about just using colored silicone hose in the correct diameter from any turbo supply house?

There are a number of suppliers that carry silicone rubber hoses in a multitude of colors. Just google it.

Spectre makes a lot of that stuff and is avilable at auto stores like Pep Boys etc.

Went out and checked a bunch of places to no avail. Most of the mainstream shops I checked only have some in small diameters for imports and such.

I think Steeda has them in black. Can't find it on the web site. Maybe give them a call.

Thanks guys. I drove all around the metroplex trying to find these (even pep boys and some specialty turbo shops) to no avail whatsoever. These guys should have what I'm looking for.
