C/F hatch and strut problem
Okay here's the story, I bought a mastergrade carbon fiber hatch and its at the body shop getting installed when the technician tells me he can only use one hatch strut because it would be too powerful and break the carbon fiber hatch when trying to close it...Has anyone heard or had a problem like this? I didn't see anybody having a problem while searching so Im hoping to get some feedback before I go telling the technician to STFU and install it cause he doesn't know what he's talking about. Any help would be very appreciated.

if there is enough interest, I'll develop a set of light-weight hatch struts specifically for those with carbon hatches. I've started to get quite a few requests, so maybe it's time to do a group buy.
They would be stainless steel (type 316) similar to the heavy-duty ones I have installed on my car below, but would simply be lighter-force so that you will not damage your hatch.
Any interest?
Let's start a list!
