yeah those are nice products, expensive for hood dampeners, since u can get normal black ones for around $30, but they are TEIN. and if you are looking for that extra piece that will show off your cf hood, thats the way to go

I converted to hood dampers a year ago when I bought the car. Overlayed them in chrome (to cover the flat black) and they've worked flawlessly since the day I put them on.

The TEIN hood dampers are more expensive, but they have been engineered by individuals who do this for a living. You have the TEIN quality and reliablity behind the product!

They call themselves PepBoys.

They have bolt-on applications for $30?
The PepBoys or autoparts stores do not have a bolt-on application. They are replacement shocks for hoods or trunks. The mounting hareware still need to be made.

the "same" ??? as in they aren't painted green with a sticker on them?? and? The DIY don't have the "i've got Tein" bling factor, but then again, the DIY system isn't mounted completely backwards either.
If anything beyond a ratchet and socket makes you nervous, a 'kit' is definately the way to go (now if they'd make a kit that didn't mount in the wrong direction)
