Default Most of us use brake fluid down there, not oil, and call lines, convenient;y, "brake lines."

And since the critical connection for different calipers and larger rotors is a soft line, it hardly matters.

Default Yeah with the shield. Bent it out or take it out. No biggie for me though

The rotor is about 1/4" larger in radius iirc.

From what I heard, 99 and older A4s will require a master cylinder upgrade.
