They are beautiful and work great, all S2000 should have come with these from the factory.
Sam is great to work with. He installed it for me too when I purchase it.

Those dampners/hood lifts give the car a more high end look IMO.
I will post picks of the finished car when it is finished. Still awaiting install of other parts.

I think I was the first to get the half pressured one, maybe 2nd, either way. I LOVE them and HIGHLY recommend buying from Sam, Very good guy to deal with and always stayed on top of it when mine were delayed al ittle while and would have jumped through hoops if I asked to make me happy.
A BIG THUMBS UP.
Just a little warning for some people, I had a very slight clearance problem with the carbon fiber on the side of the strut tower, and it was rubbing al ittle, to fix I went to home depot and got single sticky sided pipe wrap and taped it on, I got the high density stuff, if you want more details, PM me. With that on it, Not and issue at all anymore.
I think it will be dependent from car to car, so just look for it. It is a tight fit regardless.
Thanks again Sam,
edit *I forgot to add that I have the stock aluminum hood and these work better than I could have imagined, I can still drop shut the top, which is the preferred method (honda mechanic told me). *
