^^^^Cool thanks for the pics, my camera got stolen when i went over to the ITB, so i havn't got any pics from the VIP event

 

WOW ... and those were only $40 you say. The set up is just like the Tein which retials for over $140 i believe. I bought a set of the RedLines for $60 and had to rivet them into the hood!

 

Finally got my Godspeeds, but sending them back. The aluminum extension threads on ok, but the shaft in which it thread onto is not aligned with the strut.

Don't know what happened in the mfg. of the parts but they're poor. Hopefully I'll get it rectified quickly.

 

Thanks for the warning. I knew it sounded too good to be true. Ill keep a close eye here and see how the other make out.

 

I went with the Tein ones....I was skeptical about the cheaper ones I saw around the web...they were more money, but the install was a snap and they look great.

 

Mine have had no problems and had them for almost a year now, don't know what happend to yours. Hope you get it fixed ok.

 

would love to put some hood struts for the xa.

general consensus... which brand should i get? painless install? price?

 

I emailed them about the problem and they replied to install them and let them know if there is a problem. I emailed back and told them I don't have to install them to have a problem, I have one now. There is no way that the extensions should be crooked.

Now I'm awaiting their next response.

 

Maybe take a pic of the problem and send it with your email so they get an idea of what is wrong, and maybe that will help out more. That sucks you got a bad part.

 

I intend to email them a picture, good idea. That way they can see exactly what I'm referring to.

 

Did you guys order these from the same place? Or was it from two different sellers........

 

I don't remember the who i got mine from. I can check my ebay acount and see. Will let ya know.

 

I got mine from ebay seller ID; dynamictrends the email is drifteffects@gmail.com. Don't know if this is the same one you got yours from

 

I got mine from eBay seller "advan_racing"

 

that sucks, not the same seller, hope you get everything worked out ok.

 

Sent pictures to the seller. They emailed me and said a new set will be shipped first thing next week. I hope their word is good.

 

I think it will be good, don't think they would want to get a bad rap if they are gonna sell on ebay, let us know how it turns out.

 

Ok, the second set of Godspeed dampers came, and they were the same as the first. The extensions would not align correctly and this time the aluminum pieces had what appeared to be chemical erosion. Terrible looking blemishes on them. I contacted the seller and I'm sending them back and getting a refund.

I think the ones I had bought for my Miata were the Teins, but I'm not sure.

Does anyone have a run down on the best price for them?

Thanks.

 

Sorry to hear the bad luck.
