mild steel for branches (so it can expand and contract without cracking), stainless for the rest.

Hmmm, its up to you and your price range really.
A good mild steel system goes for about R1500 and can last well for 18 - 24 months
A S/steel system is about R6000 - 8000 and lasts 5 - 10 years.
My feeling is you can buy 6 mild steel systems before you equal the price of the s/steel, no difference in performance between the 2.
So if you gonna keep the car for 5 - 10 year then go stainless, it also looks better
But if you are gatvol and might flog the car in the next 2 years, go mild steel.
