I decided on clear sleeve. I think you can do black if you want.

Just call and ask for Gerry.
Kewl, thx!
PS--So even though your G isn't lifted(or is it), you went with the longer lines. Any issues using the longer length?
No! Good question and sorry for my lax description. My G is stock height so I went with stock length.
The process was pretty straight forward. I'd recommend cleaning the hard line ends really well before taking the old ones off. That way your less apt to getting crud in there while fitting the new ones. Also, look at Dave Gomes description of the job in the clubG tech section. If you use it, might want to send Dave a thank you note.
When I bled the system, I used a Motive power bleeder. If you don't have one, get one. The make bleeding brakes soooo much easier.

tip: Notice how the flat spots on the new lines are perpendicular to the clips? They are there for wrenching and the old lines don't have them. Just make sure you install the clip before tightening the hard line threads. That way you'll still be able to rotate the line if necessary. You'll see what I mean when you get them. Sorry, kind of hard to explain and my head is beginning to hurt from trying.
