I like the NRG ones a lot... they lift the hood almost verdically.

Since everybody is posting up, I figured I'd put mine in too

Here are my modified NRG's





It's really just a CF tube they put over a stock damper. Still looks good though.


Since I cut the extension, it doesn't have the really nice transition to the damper part but it still looks good.

I gotta give you props man, you did a nice job cutting those.

There's a pun in that statement somewhere

Thanks. I used a chop saw. Aluminum cuts really nicely.

HAHAHA! Didn't even notice that


Yeah, the setup looks like it was almost made like that from the get-go.

sorry for bringing the thread up from the death but I wanna get rid of my tein dampers and buy some CF ones.
However, can anyone test, whether the TEIN-extension will fit the nrg damper-unit and the other way round?
I could keep my tein extensions and have the nrg dampers doing the same job as the teins without raising the bonnet 90%...

Thanks
