i pop the hood every weekend so having hood dampers would be very convenient...

Bulge? How so?

There's lots of threads on the issue. Mine are perfect no bulge. I got mine from user kellyefields he had a couple GBs a while back not sure if they are still available though.

Are the cf struts wrapped in cf or in vinyl? If vinyl just buy the normal ones and do it yourself

kenchan · 07-09-2013, 11:54 AM

the ones ive seen are like real CF overlay over the metal housing. i dont think the vinyl can withstand engine heat all that well. at least not DiNoc. already tried and failed 4yrs ago.

Hello everyone.

hahaha, i can almost hear ms.pint yelling at the clerk.

speaking of yelling, well not yelling, but i did file a claim to amazon for late shipments due to usps f-up.

i was suppose to get my 3" polish pads last night, never came in so couldn't work on the spot polishing.

not sure if im going to have any time to do it now this week before the weekend.

sucksarse.

they say 2 Day GUARANTEED shipment on Prime...and they use USPS.

like saying guaranteed smile on your face and you get a kia or something.

Hey Kenchan! YES!! Harry is in the lot...waiting patiently for my drive home. Meetinghubby at the ballpark, he will park the F-150 someplace so that I can park right next to it, hopefully on an end with NOBODY else on the other side to ding my doors OR vandalize it.

hubby takes good care of Harry too!

yah, amazon keeps claiming it is 'estimated arrival' but on the emails they send me when they ship, it says "Guaranteed Arrival." well, they gave me like a $5 store credit so i guess i will let it go, as long as the pads get here.

i tracked it last night, and does not show up any progress on USPS site.

I called them up and asked them about it, it's real carbon fiber material that comes in a pre-made sleeve, they slide it over the hood strut and glue it in place. He said they've never had a problem with one coming off, or with the hood bulge issues other people have mentioned, so I ordered a set. Should be here Thursday.
