Has anybody used a Crazy Quiff brake pipe kit?
Been looking at the replacement brake pipe kits on CQ's site. Has anybody used one? What was the fit like? Are all of the pipes the correct lengths when bent into shape?

Yeah - the lines are green metal and are made exclusivly for CQ's by the same company that made them for VW. We can do a kit for any Mk1 and plan to expand the range with enough demand. All the kit prices will be about the same (excluding caddy).
They are quite easy to straignten - I have had customers that report they just did them by hand.
