Not a Noob, and a new car. If the line was damaged, it came that way from the dealer/GM.
Stock brake lines are made for the 90% who will not heat their brake fluid to the max temps allowed by high-temp fluid like Motul or SRF.
Ever seen a stock aluminum caliper "spread" due to heat? Is it because GM skimped on quality or b/c the design parameters did not include sustained temps allowed by high-temp brake fluid?
No one is holding a gun to your head forcing you to buy braided lines. Drive the stock ones. For me the brakes are THE most important thing on the car and I will have the best available brake lines on my car, which are not the ones that came on it.
