Thumbs up Just Installed: Endura-Tech Hood Dampers

Just received them today...here are some pics of the new hood dampers by Endura-Tech.

If you look closely, you can also see the custom grounding kit...this really works to smooth out your engine..

BTW: It took 10 minutes at most...no drilling or anything...fits perfect...very happy...and the CF finish blends in...

^^^Numbnut protectors...

Hawaii has some serious door dingers...in this case, the moldings have saved me from getting dings on my fender wells...between parking my car in booneyland and these moldings...my car car has very few dings...

Thinking about the FMIC...

I don't think the fogs will fit with the Perrin FMIC...so away they may go...depending if I get a good deal on the FMIC...

Did you have fogs Bob? I thought you already did...

Until my rubber washer busted for my hood rod, I didn't think about it either...now, I can't see not having it...it holds the hood higher and out of the way when I'm messing with the car as well..

I like the engine damper...works real well to control the side to side movement of the engine...I think it is worth the price...

$160 shipped...

Picked them up from P&L Motorsports:

I e-mailed Rich and he quoted me the $160 shipped price...
