Green cables/ brake lines?

does anyone know where i can get hold of some green coloured gear cable outers and or green brake hose?
ive seen the Jagwire kit, but its a pretty nasty, snotty green. im after something more like the iron horse logo on the over there
>
on the hose front, i can only seem to find the goodridge stuff, which i like. But it looks like that would end up being very expensive @ £25 for the fitting kit (would need 2) and then £9 per meter for the green hose (say 3 meters)
that works out at £70 just for some pointless green 'bling' if i get it from crc or over £80 direct from goodridge.
is there anyone that sells something like a coloured cover for brake lines?
any help is much appreciated!
cheers

edit your posts.
easier just to report it and say why in the report."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

thanks man,
ive seen that, but im not sure whether i can use that with the standard fixings on my HFX9s though, if not, i'd have to buy the fitting kit too. thats where it starts to add up...0
