pagid brake lines or other?
« on: 13 February 2015, 20:26:54 »

For the relative low cost and poor condition of the V6s rubber brake lines, I might as well replace them. Also compared with the soon-to-be brand new and repainted suspension etc they'll look pretty poor.

I initially was going to leave them for now and opt for stainless ones later in the year - just looking for your experiences / knowledge on them, please?

Pagid are a tenner each. What's the OOF consensus?

Thanks boys  8)

I haven't bought brake hoses for years, since I started making them as needed in braided stainless steel.


But, I haven't had a problem with any other Pagid part.


And used brake hoses are something that I wouldn't ever consider, as old ones can't really be inspected satisfactorily and new ones are cheap.

Yep, just checking. Thanks for the feedback.

Wasn't suggesting second hand lines, only leaving the ones currently on the car where they are for now  :)
Sorry if worded badly, did it just before leaving work  :D
