I知 in the middle of restoring my focus rs and I知 about to tackle the steel brake lines and fuel lines I知 just wondering if anyone has ever had them zinc plated before? Or if they can be cheers ian

 

Goodridge do a stainless steel hardline... comes in straight lengths. Not cheap though but would make a good job

 

I put copper fuel pipes on my saff. I painted them black but you could paint them what colour you liked.

You could also put copper brake pipes on and paint them too.

 

I plan on going full braidless on my saph

 

Must you use steel ? Is it some sort of concourse thing ?

If you can, use kunifer for the brakes.

For fuel lines...will sort of depend what fittings etc you intend to use at each end. But stainless would certainly be an option, or cheaper..copper.

Or if you can sort suitable fittings, nylon will never rust.

 

I bet that won't be cheap.

 

I was going to refurbish the original ones there not in bad condition tbh I致e got them to bare metal now I was just thinking of the best route to go as for refinishing them to last that痴 why I thought of zinc plating them before paint I知 going to have a look into the stainless and kunifer options the fuel lines are going to keep the push on ford fittings for now

 

nothing else has been!

plus it has the copper piping previously, a former owner must have jacked up on them as they were almost flat!
