Grimmspeed Hood Struts 2002-2007 Subaru WRX / STI / 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X Aero

Game changer totally worth it looks great too

Wish I got these a long time ago, no more reaching around the hood prop and pulling the engine is much easier now. Before and after pics ( I’m bad at remembering taking photos )

Worked on my STi once with the hood prop in the way and decided to modernize the car alittle with hood struts. These lift extra high compared to example an OEM 22 WRX hood strut.

Quick shipping. Easy install!

the install was super easy except for about 5 min where I went braindead and was trying to put the left side in the right 😆 . I love that if I'm just checking fluid (which you probably do often driving a wrx) the hood holds itself halfway just like Judaism the prop but it's not there!

and straight up position makes working on anything in the rear of the bay so much easier... this is a fantastic upgrade .

These are great! No hood prop in the way when in the engine bay. I put these in the day before I swapped my exhaust headers and they deff paid for themselves by how helpful they are. Also love to open my hood after all drives and now its satisfying to just open and forget.

Easy install and great upgrade to make. Little touches like this go a long way.

This has made the dread of opening my hood in the morning a pure joy worth every penny

I honestly was not expecting to love these as much as I do. The increased visibility under the hood makes a huge difference if working on the car. No more asking my wife to hold the hood up for me when i need extra clearance. Also the engine bay looks much cleaner without the prop rod in there.

These hood struts must be my favorite non performance modification to my GD/GG. They make working on my sad constantly broken car so much less unpleasant. My friends are always jealous when my hood opens straight up. very rad would recommend 10/10
