just hit it with a hammer and that baby will sit perfect! hahah but looks really good! ill post my cf trunk pic when i install it and im probably going to be asking you how to adjust it im going to put a body color M3 lip on it too

 

its best done with somebody in the trunk to tighten and adjust while someone else is outside the car helping out

 

yeah so just grab someone and throw them in your trunk

 

I can help u adjust it if ur buyin mine. I had my friend help me do mine.

 

yes i am buying yours, thanks

 

they have screws on the hinges if you turn them it lowers and raises the trunk and also take off your shocks if you havent already

 

I just took off one of my shocks and it worked perfectly

 

Ya, carbon creations says to not use the shocks on their carbon fiber products

 

why dont use the shocks?

 

the hood is too light for them?

 

then what holds the trunk up? my good looks???

 

ur hand? lol idk

 

rubber band mechanism

 

Just take one off, the other will hold it up but doesn't put too much pressure on the trunk when it's closed.

 

i had both shocks on with my cf trunk from CC with no issues, I did however take the one off for my hood.

 

I didn't use either shocks on the trunk due to their instructions. The trunk stays open because of the hinges and how far back it flips when it's up. My buddy put his shocks on with the trunk and it has a more noticeable hump in it than mine

 

i took my shock off my hood as well.

 

Yeah no shock on my good. I leave it in my trunk for when I need it tho

 

i took mine off my hood and trunk and i have a hood prop in my trunk if needed

 

my hood stays open on its own without a prop rod or strut anyway

 

why do you guys take the strut off of the hood? i have a CF hood and i stll have my strut on it, 09sscalicobalt is your hood prop that spring? haha

 

haha nope its a big metal rod but its made to be a hood prop

 

it was bowing my hood up. its too light and the shock pushed too much pressure.

 

oh ok, mine fits perfect

 

Mines still the stock strut but its not bolted in I just place it in the parts tray under our hood and prop it up when needed, I head of someone using the stock strut and it shot the hood up so fast it fucked up the corners of the hood, definitely don't want that so....
