Default Brake line upgrade

Does anyone know ehere to buy steel brake lines for the 06 Chargers?

I am doing new Hawk pads and want to upgrade the lines. I cant find any that are pre-bent for the Charger.

How difficult are these to install...I see on the PFYC.com it's a three wrench difficulty. I can follow directions, will that be all I need?!?! I've changed my brake pads before, so I know how to remove some of the brake system, but I don't wanna mess anything up. I did my own exhaust and CAI, of course those weren't too difficult. Should I try this or not?

Thanks guys,
Mike

You will need to bleed the breaks when your done installing the lines, so if you comfortable with that it'sa go.

I used Zeckhausen. Very good customer service.

Pads and brake lines should run approx?? I was quoted $450.

I'd do it myself so I couldn't tell you how much it costs, while your in there paint those calipers a purdy color!
