so i'm guessing air in the lines is common after teh brake liens are replaced? so just bleed it i'm guessing? is it dangerous to drive with air in teh lines?

no it's not common and is quite stupid. Only shitty mechanics don't bleed brakes after replacing entire brake lines.

Plus if your pedal was firmer before you had the brake lines replaced with a "leak" and now it's softer with new lines and no "leak" you got taken for a ride. I bet you didn't even have a leak in the first place. Which means all you had to do was bleed the lines in the first place.

Your mechanic took your money and now he's gonna take your money again to bleed your brakes even though he should of done it in the first place.

This following advice goes to all spring/coilover/lowering/tech questions....

Get another mechanic or get they Helms manual and do it yourself.

Asking us but still listening to your mechanic tells me you need to re-evaluate your situation.

If you search this site, wildoutwhiteGSR has done almost everything for his car himself except for his paint job.

If you don't want to heed his advice, there is no use asking redundant questions "because your mechanic said this"

We might not know everything or have dealt with everything but in the last 4 years I've known Trenell, He can take a part a GEN3 integra and put it back together like it came from the factory. Keep asking questions but if you can't search or research and use the vast amount of of information of other forums, search engines and even previous posts, you will never learn.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
