RR FRx question

Last week I installed the FRx from RiffRaff, which I am very pleased with. My truck sounds a lot better. My worry is that I haven't even had it a month, and some of the hoses are chaffing against other parts. I have looked for way to route the hose so they don’t touch any parts but that seems impossible. Is there something I can buy to put on the cross over hoses and protect them from rubbing away. I wouldn't want one to open up on me. Again not throwing RiffRaff under the bus. It is a great mod, but I need to make it last, especially with my wife driving it sometimes. Thanks

Some plastic wire loom, thats what I did even though Clay said it wasn't nessesary. You could even go a step further and get the fireproof-heat loom for added safety. Where is it rubbing, the hose on the driverside going back to the turbo area?

You could also use some zip ties to anchor the hoses away from the problem areas.
