    Most line can be bent by hand with steady, even pressure. SS lines are the ones you really need a bender for.

    Also, having a flaring tool is something good to have when you consider how much most shops charge for line jobs. Besides, since when is having tools a bad thing?

      I have all the tools and I'd still rather just buy the line pre bent then waste my time measuring, cutting, bending, and flaring.

        Agreed I did the job recently and it's so easy when you have pre bent factory lines to just bolt up. I think it was around $60 for the feed and return hose lines pre-bent and ready to go from pelican.

          ordered my parts will be doing the fuel pump with it's soft lines and the fuel filter and soft lines.

          I'll get to the soft lines in the front when I do the Injectors and Rail.

          Thanks for the heads up always down to save money if I can do it myself. spent under $200 for OEM BMW Hoses and Rings.
