Hoppy Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I bought mine off e-bay mate, from here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-98-Toyota-Supra-Carbon-CF-Gas-Hood-Shock-Damper-f5-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem45f6066456QQitemZ300480357462QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories It does state the following info though, mate: "Note: This Hood Shock that they do not work with Carbon Fiber or Fiberglass Hoods"?? I don't see why they wouldn't work with a carbon bonnet though?, as the brackets supplied with the kit, mount up against the underside of the bonnet hinges, and are held in place by the bonnet hinge bolts. So as long as you're still using oem bonnet hinges, you should be ok in my opinion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey001 Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 No idea?? I have spare boot dampers you think they will lift the bonnet and close ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Not a carbon bonnet. Well it'll open but it will snap your bonnet in half if you try and cose it. PM Peter Richards dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
