So I saw on gmpartsdirect.com that they sell color matched hood and trunk struts. Tthe hood strut is $38.50 and the trunk is $59.50 which is crazy for something that we already have on our cars but just in standard black. So I'm gonna save like $100 and just paint them myself so how exactly do I take them off?

 

padlock did his trunk strut looks good. maybe he'll chime in!

 

hard to describe how they come off.. its really easy though.. just pry the metal tab on them out a little and they pop off.. mine cost like $5 to do..



im going to be painting them back to a glossy black though soon..

 

those look good man, I am gonna be doing my matte white and ya $5 sounds good to me. screw the $100 gmpd.com wants
