Unless I am gravely mistaken, that hose routing will not survive their first encounter with a rumble strip, speed bump, or even some driveways that drop away and maybe even some day to day driving if you have a low ride height.

A bunch of us have the RCE kit and that is the real challenge. Routing hose so it clears the ground and doesn't rub the tire at or even near full lock, especially with 255+ width tires.

It is possible that your subframe brace allows for different routing that might work. What would be really cool would be is if that routing was part of the brace design. A low profile hard duct section that could be attached that snaked around the problem areas would really rock.

If you are interested, I'd be happy to come over and talk with you about it and show you what we have run into.

That said, I really like how the whole front fascia looks.
