make sure that you get the VERY BEST QUALITY flare wrench that is out there
With cheap tools this job can easily turn into a very expensive repair

Also don't get any of the cheap knock-off braided brake lines from eBay, (I bought one of these and they started to leak after a few months), I now have the ones from Pelicanparts w/o any issues

I replaced my 10 year old rubber Porsche lines with Goodridge ones and the improvement in pedal feel is remarkable.

Obvioulsy no change in fade but the pedal feels much more "attached" to the pads, if that makes sense!
