yeah.. I've been thinking about hood struts myself.. but they seem a bit costly to me.. hard to decide wether to get it or not.. looks good though.

the hood struts were 85 w/ shipping, theres a cheaper one for 75, but i wanted the ones that were all black.

the round bracket i got from jegs along w/ all the other partsit's for a 3" diameter can,and i bought the straight mounting bracket from home depot to mount to the heat shield.

I could only find the 2 1/2 clamp. Do you have a part number by chance?
Thanks a lot,
