Favorite coupler color?

What color is your favorite for couplers?

I have a new vendor that offers Blue, Red and Black. I want to know what I should stock the most of. I have all blue right now, but I know I want black for my car.

Re: Favorite coupler color?

I like either blue or black.

Black hides dirt and grease better though.

Re: Favorite coupler color?

My motors used to always be black from intake to oil pan (non-DSM). Now that I'm older, and less thermally correct, I like to stick to a color scheme and stick with it. My car is Talon is red so I'll vote for red couplers. Do you have any red silicone hose?

Black can go with any color scheme, but blue is cool too.

Read the first post. I only have blue right now, but my new distributor can get red, blue or black. In the common things I will try and stock all 3 colors, but others will vary. I should be able to get anything in about 3 days though.

I asked about silicone hose, not couplers.

Couplers are chunks of silicone hose. What size do you want? You don't go in a hardware store and tell them you want a bolt and not tell them the size.

I was just asking if the hardware store even carried bolts.

He asked what size you want! He obviously carries "bolts' because this thread is about silicon couplers which would be a larger version of what you want... so tell him what size you want, and then you're in business
