Anyone know if there is an outfit that will reproduce the copper brake lines using mine as a master ?, its either this or polish my old ones ? or learn how to faff about with them

Personnally if taking them all off I'd replace with Kunifer (Cupro-nickel) rather than pure copper. looks more like "factory fit" and just as corrosion resistant.

Leave the polished copper for Vintage cars and Public toilets !! thumbup
