Default So are G-stop SS brake lines any good?

if not, what would be a good set of SS brake lines to put on my A4.

I'm flushing the brakes with fresh fluid in the up coming months, and figured I might want to change out the brake lines to the calipers since they're now 10 yrs old with 130k on them...

thanks guys!

Default I have 2 sets to be installed. Used them in the past and like them.

I just have not had time. I have a whole list of mods sitting waiting for my attention. Both for my car and the ladys car.

Default I have them on the rear. but be prepared to make the hard line in between. the fittings are soft.

Default so you're happy with the quality then?

of the lines, not the soft fittings

btw, how much were those rear lines if you don't mind me asking?

Default buy some flarenut wrenchs as well and soak the rear fittings..

and then cross your fingers. I got mine to undo mine w/o buggering up the hardline and fitting to badly.

Default flare nut wrenches?

drawing a mental blank on what those look like... got a pic?

I got a whole slew of different open end wrenches and small mechanic's wrenches... but not sure if I have a flare nut wrench :-\
