I think with the exception of the 'curlies' for the rear brakes, most of the pipes Citroen supply will not be 'pre-bent' merely made to the correct length, and supplied coiled up...

Hi jonathan, no the Citroen BX ones I bought were not coiled but supplied in the correct shapes to fit. Individually packaged in polythene in fact. They are plastic coated steel which is not as easy to bend as the cupro pipe that Doc & co have made their own from which does come in coils.

All pipes I've bought as genuine parts were shaped correctly.
Only the long runs were "coiled" in a very gentle way - easy to unfold.
