I am sure weight savings is minimal with the carbon fiber and I would just like a nice black.
Hmm... I dont think making/stocking black would sell.

yah, the a-pillar cover comes all the way down to where the hood hinge is. if you open it too wide the hinge hits the plastic a-pillar cover.

Just checked. not hitting anything

Also, you can drop the hood 3/4 way down and it will close without having to push it

Not wimps, and nothing against Ryan's company but I have seen to many hoods destroyed because of bad hood strut kits (not even the eBay kits).
I am sure these are top notch and I will be placing an order in a week.

I understand. we have sold about 400 kits. alot for subarus and evos. not one customer has contacted us about damage. We actually have had a kit on our prosport 500whp suby, no problems what so ever. been about a year since they have been on.
