planning on becoming a forum vendor?

In for hood struts if you can guarantee no chance of damaging the aluminum hood.

In for more results on this.
Been looking for some solid, do not screw up my hood, hood struts. Talking to a local shop here currently, but not 100% sure they can do it, they do more tuning/wrench tuning.

uhm...if you use the factory specs on a carbon hood, the weight difference is enough that it'll push the hatch up and create a small gap.

Sorry for the car being so dirty guys. here is the Front

one thing we ran into. The rub molding that runs along the side of the fender was cut. Now i imagine some of you fanatics wont want that so cutting a little section out shouldnt be to bad. As others might just toss the rubber. Its up to you ;p

Id say the install would take roughly 15-20 min. always helps to have a buddy hold the hood while installing the dampers.

Dampers are held on with a ball joint, and the secured with a pop pin. I raised and lowered the hood about 2 trillion times to insure quality. We havent had any dampers come back for bad quality.

Ask all the questions you need to, im here!

actually the dampers go in at an angle. the rubber doesnt need to be cut but you will need to expose the ball joint.
