Stainless Steel brake hoses for E89

Here's some pics of the very first set of Rogue Engineering stainless steel brake hoses for the E89 Z4. Quality is superb and attention to detail is nothing short of perfection. These have all the correct mounting points to attach directly to all factory brackets. I will be installing these on my Z4 shortly. Contact Rogue directly if you are interested in ordering a set.

I called up Rogue on these and they said that they can't guarantee they will fit the factory brakes because the test car they designed them around had a BMW Performance brake on it. I'm guessing that's your car, wmandra?

My understanding was that the Performance brake was a direct swap for the factory brakes on the E89. If so, then these should work just fine with the factory brakes, no?

Also, since they don't seem to list these on their site, may I ask how much the set cost?

Yes, they measured off of my car with the performance brakes installed, but they are a 100% direct swap for the factory brakes so they should fit perfectly.

I can't comment on cost, but I would expect them to be the same as the other Rogue brake hose kits.

I have used these steel brake hoses for my BMW 2 series. Earlier it's operation was successful in my vehicle, later on it starts giving problem and I shown the problem to the mechanic. They told me that it is not successful and much affects in the application of brakes.

I'm not sure I'm understanding your post. If I may ask for clarity,

1. Whose specific brake lines were you using?
2. What problem are you having?
3. How does the problem relate to the brake lines?

Thanks,

Filippo
