WTB: Brake Lines

Hi everyone,

I have an 06 Z4M. I need either OEM rear brake lines or a SS kit. I have purchased a kit from Bavarian Imports but they were the wrong kit. Bavarian Imports told me that the kit I got was a mislabeled kit and they don't have anything else for my car. I found out UUC made the kits for them. They were local for me so I drove to them to verify the kit but they claimed they are out of stock. Any leads would help.

Thanks,
Hoa

This is a good overview. The bracket did require me to grind down the points with a dremel so the rubber grommet will fit, but it took like 2 mins. Our cars don't have the same clip (step #5) that the e46 does to hold the line. That was the only issue. It was very simple. Use the plugs that come with your new lines to cap the brake lines when you switch them out and you barely loose any fluid.

yea, thats not a problem. the lines that i got before was extremely long. the fronts fit fine but the rear was two piece like oem but its double the length. i have no idea why they made it so long
