Default Stainless Steel Brake Lines - which to choose?

Just wanting some opinions on the SS lines from people who have done this mod.

After searching, it seems as if most people have used the Goodridge SS lines.

But I also found these which I like better bc they are color coated for looks and protection against elements. Anyone used these?

I know Rotora makes coated SS lines as well.

Opinions?

I just bought some Rotora lines F+R but I havent put them on yet. They are kinda blueish purple. I think I paid about $125 or so for all of them in the Classified section. War Eagle! ( I go to school in Auburn)

I've got Rotora SS lines but also upgraded to Rotora slotted rotors so keep that in mind when I say compared to stock lines, engaging the brake pedal felt much firmer - felt like my car stopped much more quickly. I could engage abs with less pedal effort also. Definitely felt more confidence while hitting the twisties and braking deeper into the turn. The brakes also felt more consistent and less 'fatigued' after some spirited driving.

My full review of this setup is here:
