yes you can buy new lines.
mine came from vintage vw, but you have to bend em up yourself as you put em in-not hard bend by hand.
i have recently been getting lines made up at the local brake place, just take in the vw end pieces (squirells?) and they will flare the end of the
tubing with the squirels in place.
make sure you replace the grommets where the line goes through the body or they will just rattle and rub through again

The new lines are straight but easy to bend and there about 2 meters long so postage will be the killer unless you get it lose coiled up and are
willing to straighten it out again
Give Vintage a call 02-9789-1777 but someone must have them in Brissy
