O.K.! Tein now makes Hood Dampers for us Protege's(5)now(also Mazda6) but its pricey for the quality=)
I will most likely up grade mines just to JDM out. Dont forget these are special ordered from Japan so it might take awhile=(

No need to hold the hood up with the rod?

 

[MTV]

Oh wow haha I completely forgot we have a rod. aha

 

[gsmooth]

gotta be honest...they're cool, but I don't trust hood dampers anymore...my TBird had a set (OEM) and they wore out just to the point that I was never really sure if I gust of wind was going to cause the car to eat me...

except you can get some AutoExe ones from Corksport and have them by the end of the week.

well my carbon hood isnt that heavy, i usually dont even use the rod

You can get some from NRG also. You just need to specify if you have a CF hood or not. You can only get these from the NRG website though and they're expensive too.

Well I bit the bullet and ordered a set. Got a damn good deal from a local shop. They said 2 - 3 months until it comes in.

 

[laracroft]

Damn that's a long wait. They must be coming from China like everything else.... gotta wait til after the Olympics to get the workers back to making stuff & then relabel it as something else.

$180!!!??? That's hilarious.

Good thing that's not what I'm paying...
