Thinking of buying a whole set of hose candy vacuum lines was wondering if any one uses them and if so how is the quality and do you have any pictures?

Search 87IROC350, he used some similar sheathing and it turned out pretty damn jaw dropping. I think the hose candy stuff is overpriced, and I'm sure with a little internet searching could find the hose protectant in a bulk roll, then get your gates hose heat shrink hose clamps.
