Okay, I saw the hoses and wire loom cover things on Ben's yellow Mp3, and now I want some on mine. He has red ones on his car. I have a blue car and want Baby Blue hoses on mine. Now you guys may think I'm strange, but I am really leading up to what is going to be a pretty cool theme for my car. So, does anyone know where I can get BABY BLUE hoses?? Not FloBlue or Blue.. BABY BLUE. I have looked everywhere, or am I gonna have to get some custom made? Do you know who could do it? Thanks in advance!

I've gotcha covered. This site has silicon hoses in a color called Flo Blue, it looks baby or light blue. http://cyber.virtualrep.com/hosetechniques/catalog_products.tpl?cart=10056673171151451&category=Universal%20SVH%20Kits
I went to yahoo shopping and typed in wire looms and a bunch of stuff came up. this site says they have blue, not baby blue, but the pic they have of an engine has baby blue colored wire looms. http://shop.store.yahoo.com/autotoyaz/colorwireloom.html
The silicon tubing is a little more expensive than what I paid, but hey, you can't beat autozone. I hope this helps.

Question.. this may be silly.. Okay, say I got some white hoses and wire loom and spray painted them baby blue. I don't particularly think it would work on the silicon hoses, but what about the wire loom? I really DON'T like the FloBlue color. hehe.. the baby blue color I want looks like this..
maybe a little powdery or truthfully, I want it to be metallic/glittery. Okay, so I'm strange.

For the silicon hoses, just pull each hose off one at a time and cut a new one to the same length and replace it. For the wire looms, just cut off the old ones, if there are any on there, then replace them with the new ones. For the windshield washer hose, just unbolt the tank for the power steering fluid, and there will be a plastic connector. Just pull it off and replace. It was all pretty easy. I stretched it out over a few days so that I would take my time and make it look good. I only worked on it for about 45 min. a day, just whenever I had time between classes. I just got done painting the letters on my engine cover yesterday. I'll post a pic of it tomarrow.
Mp3cHikn ...I found them at a store in Kissimmee, Florida. It's at a place in Old Town, which is like little tourist shops. If you could find the direct number to Old Town, just tell them you want the # to the performance shop there,I don't remember the name of the store though and I don't live there, I was just staying there for the weekend. Good Luck
MazdaMP, what cover are you talking about? If it is the black engine cover, all you do is unbolt the four bolts you see on the cover. I have some updated pics of my engine so you can go off of it to see what to replace with hoses and what to cover with wire looms. If you want red, blue or yellow, I suggest AutoZone or any auto parts store. For the wire looms, I got mine from JCWhitney.com. I'm not sure about your question though. Clearify and get back to me. Here are the new pics. I painted my letters red on the engine cover. Looks bad ass. http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/big_ben2121/lst?.dir=/My+Engine+in+Progress&.view=t
