Any installed pics of Rotaryextreme hood shock damper kit?

It sounds silly and should be simple but you could actually mount it a few different ways (any mounted pics?). Also, I wanted to know if anybody has used their set with a fiberglass hood? The shocks seem crazy stiff and I don't want to bow my hood. I may end up getting a different set with softer shocks, so that's why i'm asking.

Cool thanks. I have the same kit but didn't know I had to replace the center bolt on the fender for the rod end (of the shock). I think the stock hood is about as light as my RE-A frp hood but I haven't tried it on either. Have you noticed if your hood sticks up slightly (bows/warped) around the center of the fender where the rod is connected when your hood is closed?
