Where is a good source for pre-bent brake lines. all the places I have seen only sell the entire kit for like $400. I just need the 2 front brake lines from the rubber lines to the abs module.

I wish! Not around here at least. I blew my drivers front hardline and I went and got a patch piece and fixed it but I want it done right with pre-bent line. The passenger front looks soft too. I was almost thinking about going and getting the 2 lines at the junkyard if I could find a clean specimen.

I looked at classic tube, didnt even think of inline tube. They have a booth at a swap meet I go to this week IIRC they give out discount coupons at the show. Classic tube was almost $100 more as well. the only problem is that I dont see a kit for a ccsb... I only need the front 2 lines though so any of them will be fine. Thanks alot for the link! If I knew how to give you rep I would

Why not just flare and bend your own lines?

I do it all the time.

A double flare tool, a simple line bender and use the old line as the template.

Easy peasy.

Here's one I did on my 89 when I needed a brake line that went from left to right across the engine Cross member:



:)

Edit* hmmm. It would appear pb has deleted the image. Interesting...

I dont want to dedicate the time to it. Im not very good at bending line to start with and I would have to rent the tools to do it. by the time I do all that they still prolly wont look as good as I want them to. I would rather spend a couple bucks get it fixed quick so I get working on the Vega

well I went to the swap meet on friday and talked to their representative and he said that buying just the fronts is not a problem. He said to call to order since there is not a part number for just the fronts and they would be right at $100 for everything from the firewall forward. Just letting you guys know in case you need them too
