My hood struts on my 2011 G37 coupe are going out and they need to be replaced does anyone have some good suggestions on replacements? The dealership is asking quite a bit for them. I found some on Z1motorsports.com here is the link: https://www.z1motorsports.com/z1-pro...le-p-8710.html

any advice regarding this would be great! Thanks.

 

Ebay. I paid roughly $40 for two including shipping

 

Dang I love Z1 but wow, that's robbery bro, hood/trunk struts are one thing you can buy from the bottom of the barrel, they are practically pointless lol. I got a set for off eBay for like $25 with a lifetime warranty, no need to go OEM or over the top. They have one simple job.

Those are so rad!

 

$300 hood struts!

 

No. $290.00, which is reasonable.
