Default Brake line replacement question: do I replace all of the lines, then bleed

or do I bleed each line as I go?

Car is due for fluid flush anyway, so I'd thought I'd put some new brake lines in.

Thanks,

Default Replace all then bleed - and don't let the system go dry or you'll have to also use VAG to bleed the

ABS pump system
