As promised I installed a set of these today and am very pleased!!
The beauty of this setup is that the eye bolts thread into the factory hood bump stops. They have to have about 2 inches cut off of them and the bottom of the bumpstop needs to have a hole drilled through it but thats it.
These things are very durable and well constructed!
Do a search on ebay for aerocatch if you want a set. They are worth every penny.
I broke one of the eye bolts on install but have a new one on the way.
They add an agressive look to the STI if thats at all possible!!
More pics of the install can be found in my 2005 wrx sti album at
