Just spent yesterday fitting a full set of HEL SS lines. Must say they look good and are fairly easy to fit.
Top tip, I used an industrial syringe on the bleeding nipple to fill the system back up again. Also once I Had filled the fronts and got the pistons full on, I then tapped the front brake on full hard to force any bubbles up, ensuring the system is spot on and bubble free.
In addition, the left front line fitted better on the master cylinder last as it is longer and had a slight angle to it. Finally I used a couple of ties on the lines to keep them in place up through the light cluster.
Initial feel is instant and with the EBC pads should give me good stopping power.
