I recently added a set of Polished NRG Hood Props on my '04 Coupe. I followed the directions given from Infiniti Help.com

The installation didn't happen exactly like the video. When I shut the hood after the props were installed there was no problems, but when I raised the hood it chipped paint off my fenders. I ended up loosening all four bolts and re-aligning the hood so I wouldn't rub anymore. I still open the hood slowly and like having the access to the engine bay without the original hood prop.

 

ummm ok?

 

And you feel the instructions could be inproved how?

 

This post was just to inform people how things went when I installed this modification. As with all "mods" and aftermarket applications, things can happen different then normally should. The instructions were awesome! I think my hood was stressed from heat/wear, so when I loosened the two bolts it ended up relieving some tension and the hood shifted, causing it to rub my fenders.

 

Never heard of hood dampeners taking the paint off a fender. Wow!
