    Nope , as long as you dont go silly on it. Copper bends far easier than the steel thats fitted from factory so you can lose some by making sweeping bends etc..

    If you remove the old pipe from the car and take it to a motor factors they would knock both sides up for you for less than a tenner.

    i know a place that will do it i just cant get there with no brake lines so was going to just get a straight length made and bend them myself
