    I'm about to buy this but I see there is 3 different types quick lift, quick lift plus, quick lift elite. What's the difference between the 3?

    as far as i can tell the difference between the lowest and mid level struts is the finish on the mounts. i got the low end and painted the mounts black. the high end ones look sleek but i think the performance is the same so you have to decide if the look and stainless finish is worth the premium.


    whatever you decide Redline makes a pretty sweet product.

    Especially with the DB lift! :eek::eek: I'm not even short and putting the hood prop up required tippy toes.

    I went quick lift plus on a GB we had on the forum. Simple but useful mod.
