Brake pipe flexi brackets

Is there anywhere that sells these pre-made? Or anyone handy fancy making me a set of 4 in exchange for beer tokens??

I'm talking about where the copper attaches to the flexi.

I know that's really lazy of me but I'm working away alot at the mo and want to be just spending my spare time sticking stuff on rather than spending my evenings cutting up metal with the wrong type of tools and then throwing it away again

Not sure anyone will sell this kind of thing as it varies from car to car to builder etc.

Most Indys I've seen the builders route the front pipes throught he GRP side panels and use penny washers either side.

For my rear pipes I used a short length of ally strip from B&Q, rivetted to the chasis rail with a 12.5 dia hole drilled for the pipe to pass through.

I bought a piece of aluminium angle from B&Q and cut pieces off a drilled them for rivets & the pipe. Neater than bending!
