Cool Exact Measurements

Thank you all.
Just giving back to the community exact measurements from my N54. Should be the same length regardless of body type E90/91/92/93. But these original lines are from an E93. I bought 15 Feet of "Verocious Platinum Cured Silicone Vacuum Hose - 3.5mm Blue" from verociousmotorsports. Ended up with 5 Feet extra. But next time I will probably color combo with White Silicone Lines

I divided all the lines into 7 sections. In order of difficulty. 1 being the easiest. 7 being the most difficult. This is the order I recommend but do what you want! I am rounding up values since they are not perfectly straight, I was fighting with some scotch tape to keep them in place to take pictures.
