Default SS Brake Lines

Anyone know where I can find quality stainless steel brake lines, besides Ebay? I am doing the IS-F brake conversion to my 350. Any help/pricing would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can get them at https://www.optionsauto.com/products.asp?dept=7420. I ordered both front and back stoptech ss lines from them.

Make sure you bleed the brakes thoroughly and correctly in the right sequence too or you're gonna get some funky pedal feel..or no feel at all. which would be tragic

Your stopping distance won't change, but it can improve the "feel" of the braking system... and it also has the same benefit as most brake upgrades- it looks cool.
