My side panels will run the full length of the car with cut outs for suspension etc. Is it ok to end the solid brake lines with a bulkhead connector attatched through the side panels or would it have to mounted to the chassis with a bigger hole through the body for the flexi to go through. Side panel will be spaced off from the chassis slightly.

my flexis bolt through the side panel [secured either side with a nut] and the brakeline is then attached.

dax rush's brake lines mount through the side panels

as said the end of the flexi's are generally long enough to accomodate a large washer either side of the panel the solid pipe then screws onto it. I put an 25mm x 3mm L shaped bracket on the bottom rail to support pipe coming through panel as sva inspector wasn't to keen on just being supported by the fibreglass side panel ( previously been warned it was one of his quirks )

thought about this a few times - i then welded on a bracket to my chassis. I'll drill a hole and rubber line it in the side panel.

Ok thanks i suppose its not much work at this point to avoid a possible grey area come IVA time. Cheers
