Coolflex Installed!
Hey folks,
Coolflex upper radiator hose. Really nice stuff. Install took about 20 minutes. Took the car out for a nice long (fast) drive
and rechecked the fittings... nice and tight. Sorry for the image quality... must be excited. What ya think?
Peace.

looks great. I just bought one from summit only it was red. I am a little hesitant to use it though. It's all aluminum and I thought it just slid over the existing hose but it is the actual hose. I am just paranoid about a leak and frying my opti. Let's see how this works for you, looks like you don't have to worry about the opti though.

I installed a blue kit. I actually did it because for some reason the pressure was collapsing my upper hose. it was a cheapo AC Delco type of thing, so it need to be replaced. I only did the upper hose, but I like the look so much I'm going to do the lower... as soon as I get my car out here.
