Stillen hood dampners

Post by **alphapig** » Thu Mar 06, 2008 12:27 pm

But really...

Any idea when are these dampers going to be available?

What happened to this thread? First we got shown a cool little trick mod that was supposed to be coming out this week (or at least some more information would be available this week) and then we got sidetracked to turbos/superchargers and now it's dead! Josh/Kyle can you guys give us any inside info on where you are at with these?

Post by **Team STILLEN** » Fri Mar 07, 2008 4:21 pm

Not dead.. I promise!!

We should have filled you guys in, I apologize for that. They are assembling these pieces now, and we're finalizing the cost for pricing.

We are just about to ship both our car catalog and truck catalog to the printer, so we've all been in a mad scramble to check everything, and finish all of the info for that. They will look killer, but it's been a strain on the marketing guys.

I'm sorry for the delay, it's top on my priority list Monday to pin everyone down and get these going for you..

Thx Josh,

The update is nice. No rush though, I'm sure the catalog will be well worth the wait, can't wait to see some more Stillen styled Altimas after the catalog and parts release.

Just a thought... can we get dampners for the trunk lid as well? Maybe it can be offered as a package with the hood dampners

Post by **adidas2go** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 6:08 pm

you don't need anything to hold up the trunk lid, how would you justify making dampers for those?

Post by **mcheddadi** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 6:40 pm

Isn't there already dampers on the trunk?

Post by **johnny_d** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 6:43 pm

maybe he meant power lift for trunk lid? some trunks when you unlock it automatically lift up like a SUV trunk

Post by **stereoca** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 6:53 pm

ya.. that's what i meant, somthing like what's on the back on minivans, suv liftgates, and hatchbacks. That way when we push the unlock button on the trunk lid, it'll automatically pop up.

Upon further thought, maybe it's not really necessary since the trunk lid stays open anyways.

hmmm, thats an interesting concept. You could get your effect with stronger trunk struts. They will need to be the same length, only pressurized stronger, to about 100 lbs for each strut should do it.

then when you open the trunk it'd hit ur face if you forgot

Post by **adidas2go** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 7:30 pm

that is also true ^^

you just crushed stereoca's brilliant idea

btw, count me in with the group buy

Post by **stereoca** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 2:40 pm

lol... i don't think it'll open so fast as to do any serious damage to your face or the car.

Post by **2brian0** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 4:16 pm

Ok, so now that these things are on the website, we going to work on a group buy? What do you say Stillen, let's move some product off your selves....

Post by **itsjustbusiness** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 4:40 pm

Yeah! Group Buy!

Post by **gatorglaze** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 4:47 pm

This would work just fine for the sedan as well right? Cause i know the engine bays are the same and everything but what about the bolt locations?

Post by **adidas2go** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 8:16 pm

apprantly the hood is the only thing the a/c shares with the sedan. one bracket bolts to the hood brace, the other bolts to the headlight bolt. I would make sure the headlight bolts are in the same place. Then i would order them.

Yeah... mention of it yesterday on another thread by stillen saying that the dampners and a 3.5 intake were going on sale... yet to see the product...

Post by **Team STILLEN** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 2:22 am

They've been up on the site since yesterday..

Post by **LongBeachCoupe** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 2:35 am

Yeah i just saw your posts on another thread... no GB? Price seems a bit steep IMHO..

I'm on the site now and I don't see anything. I even did a search on the Stillen website for hood dampner altima and it came back with a big fat 0.

Josh / Kyle, can you psot up the link to the sebsite of where it is located?

Post by **LongBeachCoupe** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 4:57 am

no GB? its expensive! I thought kyle said it would be around $50!

Post by **2brian0** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 5:25 am

yeah, for $100 i'm definitely not going to jump on them right away. may still get them eventually but the price is a little steep for something i will hardly use. if we got a group buy for a reasonable price ($75 or less with free shipping), i'd buy them today.

Post by **dangeris** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 8:26 am

GROUP BUY! GROUP BUY! GROUP BUY! GROUP BUY! GROUP BUY!Pleaaaaasssssssseeeeee

C'mon Josh / Kyle...Please do your magic!

Post by **LongBeachCoupe** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 8:30 am

$50 plus the std $9.95 shipping? please kyle!

Did the STILLEN logo ever make its way onto these dampners? definetly would make it look more appealing, thatd be worth $75-100 in my opinion.

Post by **LongBeachCoupe** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 9:55 am

EZ... paying more for them to label it? throw some vinyl on it if you like... mine will say Knight Rider on them... Labeled or unlabeled.. its not worth $100 IMHO
