fuel!?

you need to make sure the hose is certified safe for high pressure FI use.

i think some people in the past have used oversized hoses and slid them ontop of the regular fuel hose so it looks nicer (im guessing this is the reason you want silicone) but you still have the regular fuel hose inside the colour coded silicone hose

most silicon hoses will not with stand fuel use. some are lined but still not safe for immersion in fuel.

sod that. when my fuel lin popped in the middle of swindon there was some serious pressure there, the AA man shat himself. best leave things like that as renault intended!!! the covering idea is good except from memory you cant see bugger all of the fuel lines anyway?!?!? not enough to worry about what they look like anyway.
