Looking for pre-formed exhaust cooling hoses
 
I am looking for four ~8" x 2" (1 1/4 ID) with ~110 degrees of bend the replace my exhaust cooling hoses (see attached).
Any advise would be appreciated. I'm also thinking of covering them with a braided stainless steel mesh to dress them a little like the rest of the cooling hoses...any suggestions on that too?
Thanks,

it maybe easier , to just replace with stainless braided hose???
may cost more, but a thought.
you would NEVER have to replace again.
i had 4 plastic lines to bleed off my headers after running, they were 3 years old and like steel hose.
i replaced all with stainless.
you can get all fitting , hose etc, from summit.

I went with regular hoses...but I envision covering them with stainless sleeves some day.

almost all my hoses are stainless..
was going to use a 1.25 marine rubber hose from crank driven water pump to heat changer, but turn was to tight, so more stainless there
they are pricey
