Don,
I bought the 2 rear most pipes from TRF for my 4 and although they are not
pre-bent, I was able to bend them with ease using the pattern of the originals
using a pipe bending tool I got at my FAPS.
on my 72 TR6 project, I had to replace all 3 rear pieces + the 2 front pieces
and same process. Fittings are exact as original. And after bleeding, no runs,
drips or errors on either car. Very satisfied with price and quality.
The only addition I made was to paint them with silver rust-oleum paint.
I use silicone fluid.
When bending remember same as when cutting lumber, measure twice and bend
once!
