Has anyone made themselves brake lines? Replace the the hard lines with -3 lines? I know chase bay makes a “kit” but interested to see if i can make myself for less. Like so, last post…

made plenty of brake lines for 240’s…if you have never done it before you may mess up the flare a couple times but its not that hard
