Adivse on brake jobs

Fellowe Boxsterheads,


I want to do my brakes this winter, I want to refinish the calipers so I'd like to completely remove them. If anyone has done this how did you deal with the open brake lines? I am assuming draining the system to complete air would be bad, if it isn't I need to know that too.

Regarding the stainless, I noticed Porsche has already placed a wire coil over the rubber in what appears to be an attempt to limit swell. Has anyone done this job? Other than cosmetics was there any perceptible difference? Lastly, best street pads opinions welcome..

Thanks,

Tony
