Question Engine Bay Vacuum Hose Dress up?

I was wondering if anyone knew where to get some good quaility but not overly priced Bradied Vacuum lines with Anodized fittings to dress up the engine compartment a bit. Also what are all the diffrent sizes on the hoses .I would like to dress up thing like brake boost hose and other various vacuum lines.

OK seems as though I have found so0me hose made by Spectre but I need to know what size the line is so I can purchase it. The vacuum lines I am looking at are going from the brake booster to the intake manifold and then there are some others that also come off the manifold all the really tiny ones seem to be in good shape but the larger ones are just falling apart.

Thanks,

Those kits ar simply braided sleeves that slide over your current hose . That is not what I am loking for I want new Bradied Stainless Steel Lines where the braid is bonded to the hose making it stronger and longer lasting. Thnkas for the hint though I have seen those at my local Autozone also in fact I had remebered seeing them on a prior visit so I went back yesterdy to see exactly what they were. Not what i want.
