Default Stainless Steel Lines

I just made a purchase of SS front break lines from a company called Paragon Performance, in California.

They make/have SS lines and speciality hoses for Audi's.

Check out their site: www.paragonperformance.com

I'm guessing your talking about brake lines. they will make the pedel feel alot batter and improve your braking reaction times.

I received the lines. but have not yet had the time to install. The appear to be of very high quality.
Crimped fittings and covered in clear plastic. Cant wait to put them in.

If you order mention the AF, as there is a car club discount.

It was $47 shipped for two front lines. They seem very well made. Double crimping on each end. DOT approved.
