That’s exactly what I did, spend a few minutes in Home Depot and you'll find all kinds of spacers, extensions, and brackets that you won't have to pay a brand name price for!

That mod is all you need. I did it and it's great, easy and cheap

Did you just buy the coils? I ask because the TF 2.5" coil kit comes with their brake line extension brackets. Otherwise, yes, the mod in the pic I posted above will do the same job much more cheaply.
