Where is the best place to buy it? How much should I expect to pay, what sizes do i need?

I have looked at the kits on ACT but these are just silicone and I much prefer the SS braided look.

I drive the arse off the car, but want it to look good as well, so take the pi** if you want but a TVR was a long time coming for me!!

I don't want neon lights or blue washer jets just some advice.

One comment I did take not of from the TVR/Engine Gurus on PH a while back when I was thinking of doing this.

Covering the pipes up with the stainless hoses makes it very difficult to see the condition of the hoses underneath(obviously) and it also makes it a nightmare to find any possible leaks.

I went the ACT silicon way in the end. Look good and are better products.

Agree with BB if you are going to hide the hoses make sure they are high quality in the first place, then i guess you could fit over-braiding/ sleeving.
