Snail Spools You!
So last week I went to the salvage yard and got basically brand new V6 hood dampers for $20 total! they were missing the ball studs on one side, but I ordered those from the dealer for like $7 each. Next I went and bought a corner bracket and got 4 self-tapping screws. I had to enlarge the hole on the brackets to accommodate the ball stud. As for the hood connection, for some reason my I4 hood already had pre-made screw-holes for the ball studs and I easily installed them!
In the future, I plan to cut off the rear tab of the corner bracket for a cleaner flush look, and paint the screws and brackets DEP
It went extremely smooth, and for 35$ it was a steal. I encourage all of you to scope out your nearby salvage yards for deals like this!
