GaleForce's build
Just to be clear, the struts I had a fittment issue with are the Z1 hood struts, not the strut kit Kellyefields is offering.

alright parts will be here monday, I will be shipping those that have ordered already on tuesday. I also have something special that I am including with them. I found a way to hold the hood at a lower level for those that want their hood lower for shows and stuff. it is not attached so you will have to keep it in your car but you just have to place it on the shaft to get that lower look if wanted. it will come unpainted so you can paint it black to match the strut or go with color if wanted, just a thank you for placing an order.

I currently have 8 left if someone wants to jump in before shipping on tuesday 12 Feb.

I installed this kit in 15min. I love it.. Easy to put in, and functional with no hood bulge. Very well thought out..

The install video is a little strange but its right on...

gurneyeagle thanks for the great guy post. I appreciate knowing that people appreciate me helping out.

On to business. the parts arrived today and I quality checked them and they are the best yet. This new company did right by us. I have made the small modification needed to bolt the bracket to the hood and they are all packed up in the back of the wifes car ready for her to take them to the post office tomorrow. she will get a delivery confirmation number I will be able to send to those in the us. Sorry for the Canada folks they dont do delivery confirmation but I will put in paypal that they have shipped and add the delivery confirmation number for in the US.

I currently have 8 sets left ready to ship when orders are placed so if you are interested you will get them within a week depending on where you are located.

Even though I provide a detailed install sheet I will also be doing another install video with CHPT11 this friday and will post it here for all to see. He has a new 2013 and this will be the first time the hood struts will be going on so you will be able to see how it is done and will be walked through any steps to correct any problems if they occur. I will do one side and turn it over to him so you can see that this can be done by anyone that gets this. Also of note if you have any issues you can always PM me and I will send you my phone number and I will help you dignose any issues which with this set I do not forsee any issues with from what I can tell from checking these struts.

Again I only have 8 sets remaining and since I front the cost of these I cannot do another build until I have at least 10 committed buyers and with that comes a longer wait.

Great. Please make sure mine gets to Maryland by Saturday! If you need me to pay more for shipping, please let me know. I know your margins aren't great.
