yeah C E, i was looking for those this morning, saw the redline and the tein... although i like the tein better, they dont have a specific set for our cars but i'd imagine the sti would fit... i would think there hood is somewhat the same weight... we could post a thread seeing if anyone has them and which model they bought ?... nevermind i will jsut do it

I have the redline ones and love them. they bolt up the frame near where the strut bar bolts in and use extra strength rivets on the hood.

i dont want them because it bolts to the hood and not the hood hindge/braket. i got a c/f hood and the redline's will but stress on the hood's. the tein's wont. but there are sweet tho.

like i just said above man. the redlines bolt to the middle of the hood. witch when going up and down they make the hood bend a lil bit. if you have a c/f hood thats noot goot for it.

the teins bolt to the braket that hold the hood to the car. the tein's are stronger then the redlines to alow them to push the hod open. when you go to close it any stress is coming from the stock hood braket witch in nothing. thats why tein are better and they do not put stress on the hood cause there not bolted to the hood its self at all.
