Default Hood Struts...
What are some good hood struts that I should get? Anything good under $100 that doesn't require drilling anything?

I believe there's at least two: MRT(?) and CDC. I've got the CDC and love it. I think the MRT is longer.

+1 I got some off Brenspeed (at least i think i did lol ) and polished them up, they look nice and use the stock bolts on your hood and fender.

MRT or CDC don't require drilling.

The Redline ones do.

MRT and CDC are the same peice but I got mine from MRT because they offered the brackets in powder-coated black. It looks better than chrome on my black car. They do not require drilling.
