We don't need no hood prop.

Ordered my hood struts last week. They arrived today. I bought the Redline Tuning struts. Took about an hour because of a crappy rivet gun and dull drill bit. Instructions are very simple and easy to follow.

Start here


Then here




And done

I believe these will work with a CF hood.

Nah, they have to be designed for carbon hoods. Otherwise the force will crack it.

From their website:

QuickLIFT systems work with any hood (steel, fiberglass, SMC, carbon fiber etc.) - we design our systems using the stock hood so the main market is covered, however, our systems are made to work with 99% of aftermarket hoods. No extra parts are required. Read our FAQ for more information...
