Just wanted to say that I received my hood shocks from Redline Tuning last night and I went ahead an installed them. They work great and I highly recommend them. The install took about 1.5 hrs (I was lazy). The only thing I had trouble with was attaching the strut to the fender. You must keep rotating the strut with some pressure applied on it and you'll get it in there. If you don't have them, get them.

I agree.....

Although they are a pain to install on an aftermarket hood, the trouble is well worth it......

If you work on your car alot (under the hood) you GOTTA get'em bro. I had a recent show (may 15th) and EVERYONE was asking about them. It's only 50 bucks, and I think there is still a group buy going on!!
