[V8] Front Brake Lines

[32vquattro]

I had a guy from Fap match mine up. They ened up being from a  Mercedes 
(don't remeber the year or make, but they were in stock) The only 
difference, was the new ones didnt have the little nib that locks the hose 
into place while you tighten it. Cost was arond $15 each. FYI, you can get 
SS lines from ECS or ebay for under $100. Al
