I was at Redline Tuning this past weekend for my xB to be prototyped for a new hood lift kit made by them. It's very cool and inexpensive. The guys said the parts are on order and should be in stock within a month or so. What do you all think of hood lift kits?

I like the Teins also, except for the nasty Tein green color and the price. Beacuse of that I went with the Redline Tuning set.

If they're going to be the same price of their other units ($59.95) I'll buy one as soon as they come in stock!

Those Teins are WAY overpriced, and I'd cover them with chrome vinyl anyways...I was gonna make my own set via PepBoys for $50, now I won't have to.

Please let us know the status, and when they're in stock.

sounds like a decent price - when I made a custom set 'bout 8, 9 mos ago, it costs about the same (and it's not a simple bolt on job)

I bought a set of the Teins before from someone on here, but I never got them... and these were a lot cheaper, so I gave them a shot. It was here in two days (great service and fast FedEx shipping). It took me about an hour to do, but I'll just give you all one word of advice:

Measure twice, drill once. Make sure that you mark the drilling location for the brackets that go on the fender and double check! I thought my "guesstimating" was okay, but I was off by about a centimeter. :doh:

That's my box in the photos. Even if you're not into showing cars, it's really nice to have. No more fiddling with that stupid brace. The struts are totally out of the way for working under the hood too. I love them plus like people have said, they way cheaper than the Tein ones. I believe you can paint the standard ones as well, but Andreas at Redline can confirm that. I hope to paint mine camo to match the car.

These are the ones I'm hopefully gonna get when I get my Xb, but the only thing I'm not too thrilled about is how the bolt things on the hood are silver, I wish they would come black powdercoated like the Elite series. Oh well. Very good kit though! I am impressed!

That's why it's the Elite series, well, one of the reasons. There's always spray paint. Might have to hit up Randode for some covers...
