GRIMMSPEED HOOD SUPPORTS (STRUTS)
13-16 Scion FR-S
097001
Tired of that ugly OEM hood prop blocking your view of that beautiful FA20 boxer engine? Always wanted to open your feather-light hood with just a couple fingers? Annoyed that the hood prop is always in your way while you're working in your engine bay? GrimmSpeed to the rescue. A close collaboration between FT86Club.com members and GrimmSpeed, this kit delivers in a big way. We hate to use the "P" word, but designing this kit to be perfectly balanced was a requirement. Lift the hood halfway and you'll find a generous neutral zone. Leave your hood here for a sleek look at that local car show. Alternatively, a flick of the wrist is all that's required to coax your hood into its fully opened position. To close, simply hold the hood below its neutral zone and let go. No need to risk scratches or deformation by pushing your hood closed.
Grimspeed's new FR-S hood struts were designed in-house. A lifting linkage was designed, analyzed, prototyped and tested. The final product is the laser cut and CNC bent bracket. What that means to the end user is it's a system that will fit and operate correctly, every single time, for years to come. What about the struts? They're custom built to Grimmspeed's exacting specifications and feature a large diameter body that provides excellent opening force without sacrificing smoothness and control. Rounding it all out is a heavy duty textured black DuPont powdercoat and black zinc hardware.
