According to AEV, proper brake line orientation is between the shock and the spring. You are correct about using two zip ties so that the brake line stays free while flexing.

From my understanding, if you run them between the shock and spring you need zip ties. If you run them behind the shock, the preferred method, you do not need zip ties.

Dupli-Color, I got it at O'Reilys. Took about 1.5 cans to do the freedom panels. Next time the rest of the roof is off, I will definitely be doing that as well.
