For anything other than an out and out race car, copper pipe is adequate really.

Also if you look at the price of aeroquip /per metre and also the cost of the fittings I expect that will soon put you off full braided.

Std copper pipe (3/16") and unions (7/16"UNF) will be available from any motor factor worth their salt. You then need a flaring tool. The other option is to buy a ready made kit, but you still need to bend the pipes to suit.
