anyone try these? they look just like the tein ones, only black. Do they look like a quality product?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GODSP...spagenameZWDVW

 

well just put it this way. If they dont not work as well you are out $50.00 plus shipping.

 

I have these, they work great, you just need to look up the instructions as they "forget" to send them. Very easy to install.

 

I recommend the hood dampers from Courtesy Nissan that are made by CTD in Germany. They are first class and easy to install. http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchan...t_Code=314-001

Or you can order them directly from CTD by emailing them at info@ctd-germany.com The dampers are $165 if you get them directly from CTD.
