Default Std Fuel Lines vs Braided

Dad's Cossie is very near completion but we have hit a stumbling block, the fuel lines! The good std replacement lines we were going to use won't fit as they turned out to be 2wd and the front of the pipes are quite different to the originals so cannot route into the engine bay very well.

What he has to decide now is whether to try and get hold of more std lines off a 4x4, which finding some that aren't a million miles away will be difficult, or go braided the whole length. He has already got some braided line and fittings to do the sections on either end of both metal lines but is a little worried about mounting different clips to the underside to secure the -6 braided hose. He likes the idea of braided in general, just not drilling loads of holes in the floor/chassis!

I've done a bit of a search but can't find many pics of how people have done this so was hoping someone could help with some advice and pics maybe...?
