Default Genwon Hood props (pair)

This is just a rough up/first revision. Each one is capable of holding the hood up no problem, but the second revision will probably just be the rod(s) with standoffs/washers welded in place and stowed in the glove box.

Thoughts? Would anyone pay $20 for something like this?

Neat idea, I like it. You don't have to worry about replacing those damn mini dampers when they go every 4 years.

Yeah. Hassle part is that there's two of them, and the second version will be probably stored in my glove box. Good for racecars though, shed that (irrelevant) weight. New version will probably be made in the next week or so and be significantly prettier.

Gonna buy the materials today, but it's unlikely I'll do any real work on them today due to weather.

Plus I need to get my VT tune dialed in, so there's that.
