Carbon Fiber Hood
Hi all,
For those of you that have replaced your stock hood with a CF hood, what did you use for the struts?
I replaced mine with a VIS CF hood and the folks at VIS said that the stock pressurized struts may cause the hood to bow over time. I can see that especially on those 101 degree days being stuck in traffic.
Any feedback or suggestions would be great as I hate using a broomstick to hold up the hood..lol
Thanks
