Interest check - ~Kellyefields~ custom hood damper kit

it is not about bending the hood it is more about not allowing the hood to close properly. this is due to a couple of reasons. 1 bad design of the kit or 2 improper installation of the kit. Usually it comes down to improper installation.

if thats the case, fine, but the original post claims that the z1 hood dampers are bending hoods. which IMO...is wrong. considering z1 is an actual forum sponsor, and you are not.

guys we need to let this go. if you want to go with z1 struts then go with them. you dont see me posting on their threads even though they used the design I came up with. They decided to make their own set after they said they did not want to work with me due to the low percentage they would make so they decided to cut out the middle man. simple fact is their kit is sound because I did the Research and development and got it right before selling them to the public the problem comes down to the fact the instructions on how to install them is not there. I lay out the issues that one may have and have had success in helping people fix the problems 99 percent of the time. I have even refunded people that did not like it for one reason or the other. Simply stated you can buy there kit or buy mine they are almost identical. I am doing this to help out the forum members and the only money made goes to the forum ($5 per each sale). So to chops

now down to business I have about 8 left if all of those that said they were interested comes through. Parts left the supplier and should be arriving soon. I will keep you posted and will send shipping info once I ship them via paypal.

bro, im not trying to start anything with you, so now "owned" here. i was simply stating that the original post makes it out to seem that the z1 hood struts are a problem. i am not defending z1 whatsoever, just wanted to call it out.

Like I said, they were/have been an issue for several people on these forums but not all. Quit trying to make it sound like there was some sort of agenda here.
