Brakes

Front rotors, calipers and hoses. Boy, did I screw up. Didn't buy new inner wheel seals for the rotors and didn't buy new banjo bolts for the calipers.

Left banjo bolt kept leaking slightly. I have the feeling I over-tightened it but it isn't leaking now. Right seems ok. But the right flair nut would not come loose from the hose. So I had to improvise. The parking brake does not have enough slack so I need to loosen that a bit. The brakes still feel a tad mushy so I think a re-bleed is in order. I'm too beat to do it today. I may end up buying a booster later on because it seems kinda weak. But I'm sick of brakes for now.
