    DeLorean Go SS Fuel Lines around 1/2 the Cost of DPI Lines?

    I'm buying SS fuel lines. I see DeLorean Go has a set for $179, and DPI has their set for $295

    I love DPI's stuff, but I also would love to put some $$$ into other parts, but I'm also thinking "Hey! these are your fuel lines. Like a helmet, DON'T BE CHEAP".

    Any insight? More $$ better parts?

    Thanks!

    Our lines are manufactured in the US and produced by a DOT hose manufacture. We also include all 13 lines instead of just 9 like others. The other set is also clearly labeled in the description as made in China.

    I have personally used lines from DMC, DPI, DAP, and DeLoreanGo...I would rank them as follows...
    #1 - DPI - Superior quality, for sure.
    #2 - DeLoreanGo/DMC (seem to be very similar...)
    #3 - DAP, and I dont recommend them to anyone.

    I've said it before, this is why I LOVE this forum! DPI themselves responding! Thank you for the clarification! I felt there had to be a quality difference, only so much can be seen online!

    And DPI, those are beautiful!

    Our lines are made in the UK, we have all 13 lines, with various colouring options on the various different lines. Currently working on the photography of the latest versions, but the base kit is here, for now: https://www.deloreango.com/us/fuel-lines-kit.html

    We do also stock a lower priced set of the 9 top lines in black coated stainless, these are Chinese made from DeLorean Europe, not our product. Our British made version is DOT, ADR and TÜV certified and carries a lifetime warranty on all 13 lines.

    There are two sets stocked by DeLoreanGo, one which is manufactured in the UK, this set https://www.deloreango.com/us/fuel-lines-kit.html

    The other, more budget friendly set which are stocked are from DeLorean Europe (made in China). https://www.deloreango.com/us/black-...uel-lines.html

    If in doubt, click on the 'More Information' tab in the product description, and look at the Source, this will tell you if it's a DeLoreanGo, or DeLorean Europe product.

    I've had the DAP lines for 10 years with no problems but shortly after I got them other vendors started selling lines with a cover over the SS. The bare SS (like my DAP lones) is very abrasive if it rubs on anything.

    I have a couple lines from DeLoreanGo (the ones made in the UK, supplied by Julian) and they are top notch quality.
