V8 Vantage Brake Lines

[RIB27]

Hello all,

Has anybody changed their brake hoses out for Stainless Steel braided ones? I'm trying to source some for the front of my 07 roadster but nobody seems to know which ones to buy?

Thanks

Rich

I can't be 100% sure but when I last had the wheels off I thought mine was already fitted with braided lines, I guessed they came like this as standard?

I changed the front ones on my DB9 due to corrosion at the ends, they are ss braided ones.

Has anyone replaced their front or rear brake hoses recently? I see they currently retail at around £230 each. Seems a bit too much Aston tax is being added here!
Has anyone found a better and less expensive option?

Anyone looked at Goodridge Buildaline?

I believe someone on one of the AM Farcebook groups was saying they were able to get a set of four for around £100 through HEL. You need to re-use the metal mounting brackets for the fronts, which could be a challenge if corroded.
