i used 8v gti mk2 braided lines, but i had to remove a solid peice of brake pipe that came as part of the calliper.

This is totally irrelevant to your question but is that your motor in your sig? If it is....damn!!! that’s a nice mk2!  :cool:
You got any more pics?  :grin:

Also what exhaust system you got on it? A miltek?
