Default Anyone fitted bonnet dampers

Hi,has anyone fitted bonnet dampers and if yes what type and where from?I have a WRX with an alloy bonnet,so can you get dampers just for alloy bonnets.(I'am assuming normal ones for a steel bonnet might be a bit strong).Thanks.

Yeah I have

Tien / Tein / Teen / Tine / Tyne ? ffs I can't remember how they are spelt?

They are most dark green, but I had mine sprayed Sonic blue to match the car.
Don't power coat them as heat damages rubber.


Got mine from Paul at Zen Performance

I bought a set from Scott Lowe, and rust appeared within a few weeks. Despite many phone calls and emails promising to replace them, he never did. At least the rust hasn't spread, and they were a doddle to fit.

Looks like a group buy then.If someone can start a list (Steve?) then we can see what discount can be had.I think the best price for Tiens that I have found is about £100.00.

Saw on SS forum that alloy/carbon bonnets only need one damper?If that's the case who wants to split a set with me?
