Does anybody know of a local calgary shop that sells flexible metal radiator hoses.

Don't think I have ever seen a flexible metal rad hose. Have seen pipe with rubber couplers and rubber hoses with a steel wire mesh over it for bling-bling effect(usually some wild color). Have also seen anti-abrasion jackets over rubber hoses.
Are you thinking of one of those?

Canadian Tire sells universal kits in the automotive dress up section. I don't know if they will fit a Jeep or not.
Edit to add: I saw the kits today, they are $129 for about 2' of hose and include some funky clamps. Crappy Tire and Partsource both had them.

I just wanted something that I never have to replace again or worry about. I been through many Lower radiator hoses on my new Radiator. I almost think the outlet/intake housing has a metal lip causing the rubber to break open. But I think it would look great as bling bling as well. I did a google search on it, and I got the expensive ones, as well as some not expensive ones. So this is not a common thing.
Thanks
