Some helpful tips:

Pull the fuse for the fuel pump and try to start the car to get fuel out of the lines. As a second precaution let the car sit for a couple hours so the fuel can depressurize by going back into the gas tank. The high-pressure lines see thousands of PSI which can slice off a finger no problem so be careful. Put shop rags underneath the lines you are disconnecting to catch the fuel that drips out. Don't overtighten the 17mm lines. Prime the fuel pump before starting the car to check for leaks.
