hey all,

i work for the gas spring manufacturer, Stabilus, that did the hatch springs for the 370z; as well as most of the auto industry. we've done the 350z replacement hatches, as well as hood kits for them as well... my 370z is the "prototype" for the new hood kit that will retrofit onto the car. i will let you all know when we finish the project.

just noticed this thread was getting a lot of attention and wanted to let everyone know what going on at the OEM supplier of the auto industry.


thanks,
SP

I've got my money waiting for the first production run. In fact, hit me with a PM whenever you get a set made up for sale!!

god this thread kills you almost as much as the supercharger thread. If there was more hope of these actually coming out i would be ready to kill someone by now.

It's amazing to me too that no one has come out with these yet. Doesn't seem it would be that hard to do for a resourceful vendor. I need to check CTD's website to see if they are working on something. I have CTD hood dampers on my 350Z.
