I just bought a set of OEM ATE lines from www.rmeuropean.com, best price I found.

Why do you need braided steel lines, is this a race car? You realize braided steel lines are considered wear items and should be replaced every year or two? They don't hold up well on street driven (dirty) cars.

Your best bet is to order them online and just do it through there.

do you want steel braided lines, or rubber lines with a steel braided covering?

www.buybrakes.com has them.

Teflon interior tube that does not break down when exposed to brake fluid, stainless steel braided exterior, some clear plastic type stuff on top of that.

I have a new set that is DOT approved for the e30 which I would let go for the right price. PM me if interested with a price.
