Default Stainless Steel Brake Lines - already searched

Does anyone make a stainless steel brake line kit for the prelude that has a protective sheath on the lines? Or does anyone make a kevlar brake line kit such as those found on street bikes? I'm asking due to one of my goodridge lines being worn from rubbing on the wheel well. I have searched but have not found anything that has a protective plastic and DOT approved. Thanks.

well. if your car is rubbing through stainless steel line, then i don't know if some plastic around it is going to help.

thanks guys. yeah it rubbed just a bit which was enough over time to go through the satinless mesh. the front lines were actually really long and a number of shops and people have tried to reroute them to completely eliminate any rubbing, but they're just so long. i'm not sure if i received longer lines or what the deal is. anymore suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

I have some Russell SS brake lines and they have a clear protective sheath.

They're very high quality IMO

Technafit makes some nice coated SS lines. http://www.cobaltfriction.com is one of the larger dealers for Technafitand a pretty good place to order any brake parts from for that matter.
