I got a set of d2 coilover and was installing them last weekend, until I tried to mount the front brake lines. I tried to use the metal strip holders they give you but they are meant for rubber lines and I have ss ones, plus I didn't find good way to bend them to fit right. I know there are a few people with d2s around here. What did you guys do to mount your brake lines? Pics would be great if you have them.

Mine were meant to be temporary, but have held up for over a year. I zip-tied the stock metal brackets that bolt to the stock struts to the body of the coilover.

I did the same thing with my talon. When I swap everything over I will post my results. Sorry that's not going to help you right now:(

I'm not sure where I put the photos, maybe on the other computer? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif
I purchased a pair of aluminium bolts and 6 aluminium nuts, had the bolts welded to the vertical rear faces of the lower mounts, two nuts as spacers and a third to hold the stock brake line bracket on.
