    Default Source for braided toilet supply line in oil-rubbed or dark bronze finish?

    Does anyone know if braided toilet supply lines are available in an oil-rubbed or dark bronze finish? I looked quite a bit on the Web today and didn't find any. Everything else in the bath is oil-rubbed bronze so I'd like to match that color. (I do have one of the rigid metal supply lines in that finish that I'll use if I can't find a braided variety.) Thanks!

    Bronze spray paints are incredibly realistic in a "hidden"spot

    Use a brass braided one. It will tarnish to the color you are looking for over a year or two.

    There are "plastic flexible" lines in decorator colors. Brasscraft is one manufacturer.

    It will tarnish much faster if you miss the toilet often. Urine was often used in metal patina.

    You would have to avoid Ians advice to sit down for all toilet functions however.
