Scott did you go with OE, Stoptech or ECS lines?
And obviously all getting a nice fresh coat of G2  |
Went with OE hoses. Came in Meyle bag, actually made by Semperit. Exact duplicate of original hose. Didn't want to mess with the pedal feel by converting to SS/teflon hoses, daughter is learning to drive on this X5. My hoses had a notch in them from chafing against the strut; I think that's what lead to the SIB to fit the stainless clips to the strut.
I used boring VHT silver caliper paint; been using it forever and it actually holds up pretty well.
