Unless you had a previous owner that covered the dash there was no blue factory option to choose. More than likely yours is just faded.

Looked through your build thread and it looks the same to me. I ordered about every black sample they offer and compared it to the dash. Samples are cheap cheap

My personal lesson from this is to just replace brake lines if you don't secure calipers correctly and they drop, tugging on the lines. Better safe than stranded. Leak is where the SS line connects to the banjo fitting.
New lines arrived, guess I got a project as soon as I get back from vacation.

04 6mt Coupe - motordyne 5/16 ART pipes TDX2; KWv2; Hotchkiss; custom seats.
Struck gold and picked a hotchkis sway set, mishi catch can, a lower door seal, and a pocketful of hard to source clips from the boneyard. Condolences to previous owner, thank you for your offering.
Ordered clutch, fly, pivot, bearings, silicone master hose kit from z1.
Picked up some ramen because the wallet is suddenly a bit light. Lol.

SS lines have that issue. If you look in the warning sheet sent with those, they are only good for 4-5 years or so too. OE are best for longevity. Sorry to hear!
I finally did shocks. Was a little bit overdue lol.

In that case, these lines were at least 6-7 years old.
It is lol. Its spaced in the rear. Help clears the 75mm tb and 4in intake. Also helps with lower engine bay temp (which I tested before/after and it is functional)
