Re: Where can I buy PREMOLDED brake lines?
If they are out there, I don't know where. I've replaced half my lines and had to bend my own.

You may want to look second hand, but you will need to be looking where rust doesn't exist.

Re: Where can I buy PREMOLDED brake lines?
Other than flaring the ends, which isn't that bad if you rent a decent tool, they make a new brake line that you can literally bend by hand, which means you can bend as you go or make adjustments on the fly...super easy to work with and pretty cheap for a roll.
A temporary fix does not exist. It becomes a solution until it needs to be fixed again.

Re: Where can I buy PREMOLDED brake lines?
I always make my own. I run into minor trouble with bubble flares. If I can't use the factory line where a bubble flare is needed, I buy one from Autozone, then double flare the other end and attach them that way. I have all kinds of spare brake lines laying around the garage. I only made a flare before placing the nuts once so far!

Look on Ebay as there are at least a couple.
FineLines is one.
Of course you do pay for convenience.

I've also found that premade lines can be impossible to install without removing other major components.

If you want regular steel, not stainless try Ebay seller http://stores.ebay.com/SSTubes-Prebent- ... 7675.l2563
I just bought a set for my 98 SE w/o traction control.
I didn't have to take anything apart besides the brake lines since these are made in sections for easier installation.
