Anybody know of a support that works with the Seibon carbon fiber hoods? The stock spec supports are too stiff and won't close with the reduced weight of the Seibon hood. I'm curious if anybody has experimented and found something that works!

That's a new problem? Usually the gas supports are too weak to hold the hood up? The hood being lighter should not be a problem. Just slam that beach down! - LOL

We just installed a carbon hood on a gen 3 from Autoform, and had to get lower pressure struts.
I can give you the part number on Monday.
Give me a call or email on Monday when i am in the office
