Basically I removed everything,

Fill in w/ "All Metal" and sanded that down.
Follow up w/ a glaze. Sanded that smooth.
I used rattle can primer and paint. I didn't have it professionally painted. If you take your time spraying it...it comes out great. Just be sure the primer and paint will mate. If not it will peel and bubble up. I found out the hard way:shocked: :angry:
You local paint shop will have this stuff.

Just what was in the engine bay or right at the brakes. Yes it is expensisve, but it makes some runs easier since it is flexible and looks tons better. :D
All the long runs you want to keep rigid ss. You will get some brake line flex in long runs like to the back of the car etc. I wouldn't go really longer that 36" probably.

It's not a ton more expensive...maybe $100?? You need the line and the ends or you can buy prefabbed lines as well. either way it is more. As most of the ends are like $8-$10 or more depending on the angle?

Yes there are four nuts to remove behind the dash. I had my dash out when i removed it. It may be impossible to get to the top two nuts off with the dash in???
