Yes, or you can use dampers made for most any other car with a simple swap of some bolts and/or studs.

Plus 1


But I have hood props!

Oh btw every one, if you go get hood hinge replacements from Honda, they open up to a 90 degree angle, something my stock hinges didn't do.

I got the ones off of ebay and they didn't really work too well, but then again i couldn't really put them on properly cause the head of my hood bolt is sheered off. If you are gonna invest the money get the NRG ones. I will prolly gather all of the parts to the ebay ones and sell them if anybody wants em for cheap, but be advised they did NOT hold up my oem hood.
