Can you goto a brake shop and have them fabricate some new lines. It's not hard to do.
I'm trying to replace the rear rigid fuel and brake lines on the 540i. Except for the intermediates on the semi-trailing arms, all are no longer. Bav Auto was unable to get them either. This stinks, and I'm sure I'm not the only one with rusting lines. Anyone have a source for new ones I missed? I'm trying to replace everything at once while I've got the rear sub frame out. Worst case, I'm thinking about running AN lines front to rear.
May the Schwarz be with you...
I think yaofeng fab'd his own lines last year.

i got mine at the dealer no prob, $12 per trailing arm for the line, but i had to do the bends myself.

I'd just get the AN lines, will give more options down the road.

Thanks for the links, they're great. I haven't made up my mind yet, but these are all feasible options for me as of now. I do like the idea of bending my own lines, as I'm trying to keep the car as stock in appearance as possible. No reason to advertise, right? I also apparently need to re-evaluate how I'm searching the archives to find this stuff, because I missed this.
Thanks again,
Chris
