About this part

Product Details

NRG is known for making accessories that help personalize your ride, and this carbon fiber hood damper kit is a great example. If you're looking to make popping the hood a bit easier and add a clean look to your 2001 or newer Subaru WRX STi, this kit is designed for that. It replaces your factory hood prop rod, so you won't have to manually prop up your hood anymore.

These dampers use gas pressure to help lift and hold your hood open smoothly. The carbon fiber construction not only looks sharp but also keeps the weight down. Installation is usually straightforward, often bolting into existing points on the car, meaning no drilling or welding is typically required. It's a practical upgrade that makes working on your car or just showing it off a little more convenient.
