And they're safer... until the gas in the struts fail, possibly. hahaha

I used to have GReddy CF hood struts and was about to upgrade to SYMS struts... then realized the nicer ones (including GrimmSpeed) use more material/weigh more. Then I looked up the Supra and LFA had hood props rather than struts likely for weight savings (LFA one is CF). So I reverted to my stock hood prop. Insignificant weight savings, yeah
, but I did it for the principle.
