Shut the hood GENTLY to test clearances! DO NOT DROP OR SLAM THE HOOD! All cars are different, and the strut brace may fit differently on your car. This is not a problem with 99.9% of the cars but KLA Industries WILL NOT be responsible for ANY damage. If you do have a fitment problem, please email or call so we can help determine where the problem is and help you solve it. If we can't get things just right to your satisfaction, we will let you return the strut brace for a refund.
