Default Silicone hose adapters

I need a couple of silicone hose adapters for my new intake. One needs to be a 4" reducing to a 3" and the other a straight 4". I've checked eBay and they have the sizes I'm after but they only seem to have them in blue, not a good colour combo with a red car.

Any ideas?

what colour you after? I assume red to match car... Why not purchase and paint them with heat resistant paint? Could save time as I didn't know any colour but blue existed

NO!! the paint will come off straight away, most car places do any colour you want, as long as it's black red or blue

Damn it I screwed my measurements, It's a 3.5"to 3" adapter and a 3.5" straight.

Bugger.
