Wow! Having hoses made is not cheap. I really wanted the hydroboost to look clean and not have hoses be the first thing you saw when you opened the hood. After trying a few different GM hoses I decided to go ahead and bite the bullet and get some made. I just zip tied them last night for initial fit. Will clamp them down once I can get the low pressure return finished up. These are definitely a smaller overall diameter from the traditional rubber hoses and will clean up the brake/steering area.
