Default civic brake hardline question!??

okay i did a rear disc conversion on my 95 civci ex,
i also got a 40/40 prop valve and m/c and booster,
but i stripped all the hardline bolts so i cant put them on yet..
what do you recoment i do?
should i just go buy some new hardline and rebend it through the whole car?
or so they sell pre bent ones?
any advice would be nice

Either you need new ends...cut, put new ends on and reflare the tubing, or get new hard lines.
They have this awesome thing called a line wrench, or tubing wrench, they sell them at Autozone and it's like $15 for a set of 3 wrenches with 6 sizes. Or just get a 10mm and 12mm line wrench. They prevent you from rounding the bolt things. You absolutely must use this or you'll have issues like you do now.

To get your current ones off, you can use channel locks or vise grips...
