And they're damned quick to boot.. 300km/h = 186mph

No that's how mine were. You shouldn't really really need them at 3".

Bend the hard line straight.

When I installed those I had to notch the square ends a little. Jimmy knows what I'm talking about. And I took that bracket off

I know I don't really need them but I figured it wouldn't hurt, so theyll be alright even though they're not steel braided hoses?

Here is how I mounted mine. 12 gauge bare solid wire wrapped around the line through some holes. On the square end you will need to notch out on of the sides a little, this is because there is a bump on the caliper so that the factory lines only mount one way.

That does not give me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside - that little wire tie doesn't protect that hard line at all - you need to have the end of the hard line mounted solid with a bracket to keep it from rotating or twisting. Hard lines break really easy - first time you catch the soft line on something the hard line is going to snap.
