Default anyone got pink samco hoses?

At the risk of being called a big ghayer I was wondering if anyone has fitted any pink samco hoses? I want them to match my strut brace. Are they close to sti pink?
If anyone has any photos of them installed that would be ideal.

Let the p1ss-taking commence.

does that mean the sti is for gayers?

Anyway I have bought a short length of pink samco hose to see what it looks like. Its made to order tho so it'll take 4 weeks to arrive.

Guess i'll just have to wait unless anyone can come up with something more constructive than, "you're gay".

the urban camo, metallic silver and pink hoses look quite cool, tbh i'd fit the pink ones myself as i think they would look good on my mica blue car.

I bought the hose to go between the intercooler and the throttle body just to see what it looks like.
I got it from STP Motorsport through their ebay shop: Click Me
Really helpful guy and they have an excellent range of Samco gear. If it looks good i'll go back to them for the whole kit.

Well after a long wait for the hose to be made to order i finally got my intercooler hose and vacuum hose.
Its a pretty good match to the sti pink on the strut brace, perhaps a bit brighter but i'm sure it won't stay like that in the engine bay.
As promised here are some pics:
(oh and i painted my caps too)

my boyfriend and I were just talking about dressing up my engine bay and i found this thread in a search it got me excited cause yours looks very similar to mine. the wires are a pink grounding kit. when i ordered it the guy said it's the only one he's ever done. I was the first to request pink

I've found Viper Performance will do me pink hoses cheaper than Samco with a shorter wait (Samco can take 5 weeks). So i am ordering pink replacements for the blue ones that came with my fmic kit. Everything should look a bit better after that, its a bit all over the place at the moment
