Factory line is black rubber coated with braided steel liner and teflon plastic inner sleeve.
The braid is more coarse than the Russell Stainless Braided line that I had to replace it with on the rear.
Brake pedal feel was improved.
I am going to swap the front and test it as well. But need these massive thunderstorms to leave the area first as can not threshold brake in the rain.
