Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?

It's right where the lines that run the length of the chassis inside transition to the exterior, as you said, right before the rear wheel. Kind of a pain in the ass spot, as it's not actually the shorter rear lines but the long mid lines. I got a brake flaring kit and started practicing, it's not too difficult and will probly save me a fortune to be able to patch my own lines.
Edit: damn I gotta check my 97 LGT...

Use copper-nickel for your new lines. Much easier to bend and flare than steel.
