aluminum shielded brake hose...

my rear brake hose has been rubbing against the inner metal fender ever since i swapped the rear drums for disc brakes... i tried using cable tie to shield it temporarily from continuous grinding... but somehow plastic will still give way... and when it happen, u wish u wasn't flying down the highway at 160kmh...

fortunately when mine gave way, i was just creeping towards the traffic lights... managed to pump my brakes several times to avoid hitting my friend's car...

bought a new Perdana rear brake hose, get it fitted into the shield, and DIY changed it at home... tadaa, here is my new invention...



i hate bleeding my brake lines... i will never get it firm first time around...
