The ideal thing is to have custom flex lines made. Next best is custom fitting your own hard lines and that involves flaring which can be a PITA. Last and easiest is to buy pre-length hard line already flared with tube nuts. That's what I did with little difficulty. Only hangup I found was 8" is a bit too short and 12" is a bit too long. I'll shoot a picture of some of my iterations.
I didn't feel comfortable re-bending the existing A caliper hardlines. But Bernie hasn't died yet and that's what he did. Original lines are easier to bend because it seems like they're softer metal. The parts store lines are prettty darn stiff compared to the originals.
