Hood struts
ORIGINAL: Joolander
Grabber, a few questions if you don't mind
1.) price?
2.) what is the psi in the pistons?
3.) do these struts lift up the hood gently, or do they throw the hood up so that i have to fight it, or do i have to lift up the hood to where i want it and the struts just hod them there?

I forgot to list the colors at the powdercoater that will be available. Additional colors may be available after the first production run. If your color is not listed, you could buy the Natural aluminum and paint them yourself. My set which is a color prototype is painted, and they look great. The Natural aluminum will becheaper than the powdercoated sets:
Natural aluminum finish (either unfinished or powdercoated clear)
Performance White
Vista Blue
Windveil Blue
Grabber Orange
Torch Red
Screaming Yellow
Legend Lime
Black
ok, 2 more questions (sorry, but any time i initially like a product i have to scrutinize very carefully)
4.) is the hood easy to close after intallation?
5.) do you have / could you post video of the struts in action? (this is one thing i never see when people are selling hood struts)

Yes it closes easily, even tho I do slam mine down after it popped open on me at 105mph...
Yeh I guess you're gonna force me to learn that video function on my camera....been wanting to do it just been lazy. Will work on that tomorrow.

these hood struts caused your hood to pop open at 105? or was that prior to installing these beautiful struts

Looks like you aren't doing my color... I'd go for a natural aluminum set, especially if I could get
them before next weekend (since I'm doing underhood work next weekend anyway...).
I'll PM you.

Ill be installing my set on Saturday so we can show you on a different color and how they will function on an aftermarket hood. What I love about these is that they will look like they are part of your car and not some robocop bracket the attracts the eye when your hood is open.
