Welsh boy, I don't subscribe to that topic, I get notifications on topics I am part of.

Nor do I but I remember seeing it pop up as an unread topic.

Have you fitted them yet?

Are they worth it?

Yes I have fitted them both. I undercoated, painted and lacquered both main brackets and the smaller ones before fitting. With both fitted you need to use both hands when closing the bonnet but I feel that having both struts there is more support when the bonnet is up.

I had Devontopias lifter fitted to my Fab vRS and these are just as good. We'll worth it in my opinion.

I will post some pictures if you want.

I only fitted the one lifter (offside) and it's got a similar, if not more powerful, feel to the one I had on my previous Mk1 Superb. I can't see the need for two.  Easy fitting and, after spraying to colour match, looks OEM.

Rizmod, where did you find the colour spray to match OEM?

I will post some pictures if you want.

Yes, please.

Yes, please.

Just looking at the topic... bonnet lifters... is that like shirt lifters but for people who like vehicle exhaust pipes?
