I won't go for braided, I want somethign that is light in color so I can see if fuel is traveling in the line.

+1, so you could see bubbles, and fuel when tuning.

braided is mostly a bling thang, i would get a line where i can see if the fuel is getting to the engine or bubbles like other members said.

I agree, function over form. Get clear (translucent) so you can see the fuel. It's more important than you might think.

i did have a set of braids.. why i dont know .. probably the bling thing.. but as already suggested, its important to see the fuel in the lines. so I have the following combination: the fuel delivery line is clear/smokey colour, so i can see the fuel on its way to engine, but the exhaust to tank line.. which passes very close to the spurgear is braided with extra heatshrink on the ends. I like that because i did have an exhaust line tangle in the spur once after it had rubbed on it and cut thru the rubber. the braided line on the delivery tube when i first got it, was good for keeping the fuel line from being cut open when i did wheelies and flipped the truck on its roof.. sometimes as doing the wheelie the car would get a good speed up and then slide on the rear shock tower if it flipped, and somehow trapping the fuel tube. but eventually the braid wore out and i re webbed the fuel line somewhere more protected.
