stu1986 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Hi all as most of you know I have got a 370Z yellow and I am looking at changing the hoses under the bonnet but dont know what colour to go for, dont want to go for blue or red as I think it might look a bit like lego and clash with the colour lol. was looking at some white hoses, dark green or even camo effect?

Ekona Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Please not camo, that's horrendous! Any reason why not yellow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu1986 Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 because if it was going to be yellow it would have to match the same colour as my car or it will look wrong and unfortuantly im a bit of a perfectionist, at least if i go a completly different colour its not going to annoy me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu1986 Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 they do one called viper red which is nice or the gunmetal grey http://www.samcosport.com/uk/colours.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Please not camo, that's horrendous! Any reason why not yellow? Blue and yellow together are two of the most complimentary colours apparently, it has something to do with them both being primary colours I think.

14N Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 As Papa said, blue and yellow do compliment each other. Yellow hoses would look good with the yellow car, as long as the hoses (and any other yellow items under the bonnet) were fropm the same manufacturer/same shade. But of all the colours, gunmetal is the best. Fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Lime Green or Gloss Black or I agree with glrnet Blue would work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMacDaddy Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The Samco hoses you can see coming off the coolant system on mine are Viper red if you're keen: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arran Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Blue would be your best bet, then do your calipers blue and get an exhaust with titanium tips Then finish the car of with some blue tommy k badges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisS Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 You could ask the different companies for yellow samples. Got a flyer for these the other day, never used them though. www.autosiliconehoses.com 0844 8000 669 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Paul T had dark red touches on his liquid yellow zed and it looked great. Something more vibrant but still dark would look great http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/38112-paul-t-build-thread-2nd-time-around/page__fromsearch__1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu1986 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 still liking the white hoses could go very well with carbon fibre engine bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
