Redline sells 'integrated' hood strut kits with custom brackets.
Got a link for said strut kit?

I've heard that hood dampers aren't recommended for CF hoods. Not sure where I heard that from or why though, you might want to look into it though.
This is generally b/c it takes more pulling force to shut the hood than the carbon fiber hoods can safely take without cracking. With that said, I've seen plenty of people using them with CF hoods w/o issue.

Anyone got anything further on this? Even if I only need one, I really would like to get something like this for the talon. Brandon's hood slammed shut at the track during the tech inspection, and almost slammed on us when we where messing around with his coolant stuff. Slammed on me at the cookout last year, and again on me when I was messing with the boost controller at a gas station this year. I want a resolution for the CF being lighter then a fricken 5mph gust!
