Braided is a no brainer for me but i went with 2 hose from master to caliper and wish i had stuck with the original 1 to 2 design as i think it looks better.
but its a personal looks thing. nothing to do with how well it works or cost etc

I have the three line Venhill kit on mine as I think it looks better (but costs more), It is easy to fit as the end fittings are separate to the lines so much easier to line things up, still a bastard to bleed though.

2 lines from master cylinder, Earls made to measure and s/s fittings approx. £65 any colour you want.
