any update?
No update yet Krispy, I havent had a chance to compile the pics and send them yet, I have been really busy the last few days, but im hoping by wednesday I will get it done.
no worries, just curious
you get the pics I sent last week??
the trunk will lift up on a carbon fiber trunk if you use the oem trunk springs. you have to fabricate a stopper to remove the flex. the steel trunks can take the extra stretch because of its density but carbon fiber is alot lighter. when you look in the trunk you will see that the oem spring will stop at one point when the trunk is closed but will keep going causing flex. a home depot bracket will will fix that.
Not really that simple. What your saying makes sense in theory but doing it is a different story. You need to limit the upward travel or tension on the hinge when the trunk is closed, using as stop will work but then how would you open the trunk? The stop would interfere. Im in the process of making seperate spring tensioners for each hinge very much like the JDM 8g uses. Once I get it all welded up its only a matter of testing different springs to find out which works the best.
my hood is VIS and I don't have any of these fitment issues
