Default Rear disc brake upgrade, flex lines

My local Jeep dismantler quoted me $200 for everything needed from a ZJ to complete this upgrade. My question is what flex break lines are you all using to adapt the existing hard lines?

^Negative. I hate the factory ZJ lines. Just get you some custom SS lines made through Crown Performance. It's not all that expensive and an upgrade.

They built me these for my ZJ setup.

Thanks! No I know. Just sayin don't buy a new set of ZJ lines when you would be surprised how inexpensive some custom SS lines are.
