Z1 sells 3 different hatch strut sets, depending on how ridiculously large your spoiler is.

Sounds like you need new hatch struts...

Go for the HP or UHP. But watch out when opening the hatch as those UHP ones are really strong! And good luck closing the hatch!

Now, what's up with the snow on the car when your location says "Miami"? Or is it another kind of "snow"?

Go with the strongest/best struts as they lose pressure with time/use.

Mine last about 4+ years before needing replacement.

Hmm I might order the MHP now. I originally had the UHP and I felt like I could hang on my trunk without it closing. I currently have the HP but they are still a little strong. It doesn't bother me but any of my friends that close the trunk make a comment. MHP might work best with my Blitz style spoiler.

OP for you, I would get the HP. Should be more than sufficient.
