prebent hard brake line: aftermarket source or bend my own?
I need to replace the Left Rear brake hard line from the pressure regulator to the caliper flex line on my 81 Euro S. The part is NLA (927.355.073.01; strange that Porsche chose to use the RH drive #, but it's the same for LH and RH apparently). Does any one know of a source for a pre-bent aftermarket line and cost? If not, I was thinking of just bending my own from one of the long straight Poly-Armour lines by AGS (less than $15 for up to 84" length) at local auto parts shop. Before I pull the line out, does anyone know if one of the readily available lengths will work or will I have to cut down one end and have it reflared?

I think the material is Cu-Ni, and it bends and forms really easy. I have sourced it before from http://www.fedhillusa.com/ .
