Default Who Can Tell Me (Brake lines)

I have asked everyone and sent pm and no one knows. Who can tell me i am dyeing to do this to my bike.

Look at link below i am trying to figure out how to do my lines like this. In the pic he has them orange and i dig the look. let me know if you know where or how to do this. Was hoping i could find a colored tubing to put around it rather then replacing all lines.
PLEASE ANY SUGGESTIONS

Spiegler sells custom line kits. You pick the color of the fittings and the lines. Check them out.

I would check at an auto customizing supplier. People are always trying to dress up under the hood.

Is this the pic. If so those are brake lines. I would just go and get a set of new ss lines. you can get them in any color combination. It is a cheap mod and very functional.

Thats it and i love the look. Is it you bike? What brand lines are those and is it hard to rewire the lines. I have no clue on how to bleed breaks and do all that stuff unfortunatly. Any ideas?

Check the how-to section, there are a couple of great ones on brake over-haul.

As far as a jacket, instead of the SS lines. Try the auto store for cable/wire loom.
That's the sort of fish-net looking stuff for wire bundles.

Long-term, though, I would HIGHLY recommend you go for the braided SS lines.
They are one of the best performance inhancements you can do for your dollar.
