not their fault?
Sorry but I don't agree.

I know Ray Catena Infiniti charges $144......when I first put my injen intake on....I brought it there for an oil change.....the service manager opened the hood and pointed out what was about to happen....then he brought me into the office and showed me a stack of 30-40 receipts where people replaced the ac lines....
I went to Pepboys paid $2.00 for what looks like a rubber bushing with a hole in the center.....I used a knife to cut into the center....slide it in place right between the ac line....and the screw which creates the hole now there is 1 inch of seperation ...1 year later there are no issues.

You screwed up. You should pay to have it fixed. I had the same problem (due to a Vortech supercharger install but the same idea). I bought a replacement line and had my mechanic do the swap then I had the dealer refill the freon. It was expensive indeed. I'm pretty sure that $144 is the cost of just the replacement part.
