Does "strut" offer the lowers for face-lifted models? Do they have a web site you could point us to? Thx!

That doesn't look bad at all with your TiSi X, but, how do you open your hood? Your headlights look awesome .

You said in your thread that you have a second lock reinforcing the latch did you add a second latch on the same release? any pics of the latch mechanism?

and for the guy asking about strut's website http://www.strutwear.com/pr110204.html
