I've had mine installed for a few days now, and I wanted to reiterate just how awesome these are! GrimmSpeed really did their homework on these folks, and it shows. I never thought that the simple act of closing the hood could put a smile on my face, but when you get it past that middle area where it can hold itself open if you let it, let the hood drop, and it closes with that satisfying "thunk," I can't help but grin. Seriously, it closes BETTER than before without them.

If you are on the fence about buying a set, JUST DO EEEEET!

Got these super fast and couldn't wait to install them! Unfortunately I recieved them the day my car went into the dealership for repairs so I haven't yet been able to install these beauties.

I Installed mine today.
Very high quality parts. Looks completely stock. Took about 1/2 hour to install. I am completely satisfied.
