    Updated brake hoses

    I've been looking at uprated brake hoses but can't figure out how the rears will fit my car? 172 cup but the pipes are fixed all the way to the valve on the rear axle. Does anyone know what you would get in the kit?

    Update 31/1/14 New brakes arrived today. Everyone loves a brembo order! G 172 as always rapid delivery. I've also dropped off my calipers, carrier brackets and hub for soda blasting. Found a really good back street garage that does it for cash.
