CF hood question.
Hey peeps,
I am pickin up the E55 today but there is a lil issue with the new CF hood. The stock air shocks are too strong for the CF hood. What can I use as an air shock to lift the hood. I dont wanna be the guy with a broom stick in the truck to look under the hood....lol.
I will post picks of the new and improved paint when she gets back home tonight.

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Considering the savings in only 15lbs which explains why so many opt not to go that route, perhaps the stock hood would be better. Otherwise you could go down and try to match up something that would work and test it out, just do not pull down too hard, seem many bent parts that route.
