Yep, just like the brakes. The clutch master cylinder shares the reservoir with the brake master cylinder so make certain you watch the fluid level. If you run it dry bleeding the clutch system you have to start over and bleed the brakes again too. If you're going to be doing the flushing yourself going forward, it's well worth buying a pressure bleeder by the way.
I wouldn't say the SS lines are a waste of money, but 10 years isn't really old for brake lines. My 3.0si is also an '06 and I've had the calipers off and on a number of times and checked the condition of the outer surface of the brake lines and it's not showing any signs of oxidation or any other degradation. Unless the system has had a lot of moisture in it, the outside of the brake hoses usually gives you some idea of what the general condition of the hose is.
