Dress up. Hoses?

I decided to take a little more pride in my engine bay and clean a few things up. First off, I'm planning on doing the battery relocation this weekend, and I'm getting the AEM CAI within the month. I'm in college, with a job that gets me just enough to get gas, so I'm very tight on money. I've already decided on swapping out the coolant and windshield washer fluid resevoirs with something a little less atrocious. But I dont know what to do about hoses. I dont really want to spend the money right now for silicone hoses, but i dont have a powdercoating gun either. I feel like painting them with engine enamel would be really cheap, so has anyone found something fairly cheap that looks good? I would appreciate any light shed on the matter!

Why not just wait until you can afford the good stuff?

Ive begun to start to see the light. And the other side looks so much better. Even though its more expensive.

Ok. I'll do that then... But Where can I find a Complete Kit? Most of what I'm seeing are just radiator hoses. Do I have to "Custom" select eveyrthing off a website such as this: http://www.siliconehose.com/ Seems fairly affordable?
