If you can make a double flair in the line to the rear brakes near the master cylinder and connect it directly there, the job looks better.
I practiced on some scrap tube first.
Then all you need is a T to connect the master front to the left & right fronts right where the ABS was.

Copper tube is not suitable for automotive or aircraft use because it tends to work harden at stress points & break.
