i would consider it (only in black of course, colored hoses are for ****)

however its just too expensive for... hoses. heres what id do, zues. take off all the hoses that you think need replacing, go to any autopart store and have them cut you new ones. its a no brainer and much, MUCH cheaper. i've done a few as needed on my balt for just a few bucks and i got news for ya: they are holding up just fine.

As long as the vacuum lines are 100% silicone I would say buy it up but if they have a cheap filler pass
