Nice, but just how resistant to salt rot is that stuff?
I'm going to cast my vote for steel. I'd also go ahead and replace the entire length of tubing, since I'm not big on repeating work or making a patchwork of repairs - Remember that each splice can turn in to a leak for air or fuel.
Enough bulk tubing to replace every bit of steel line under the car plus the tools to cut, bend, and put nifty little nubs on the end of the tubes will cost you less than half of just one line from the dealer, and that isn't even based on buying the cheapest tools.
