    The fronts are not too bad. I changed to extended when I installed my Spindles. I have not done the rears yet. Just make sure you bleed the brakes really well. Don't round off the nut on the hard lines. And clean up any brake fluid spillage quickly if you get it on any painted surface.

    Ok cool. I am guessing you went with braided brake lines correct??? Do you notice any difference or is it just stronger than the rubber ones.

    Yes I went with the braided. Well I did a complete rotor and pad upgrade too so yes I saw an extreme difference. It actually feels like I will stop instead of I hope I stop in time.

    Yeah I had thought about doing my bumper with it, but after completed my grill today with plastidip I think I'm gonna have the bumper bedlined instead. The plastidip worked great for the grill, but I think it won't hold up the abuse the bumper gets.
