Default GXP owners please step in

Kinda silly I know, but do any of you have 2 hood strut supports on your GXP. Another forum member swears he had 2 hood struts on his 05' I've gone back and looked at pictures of early production GXP's from the Bondurant School event that several clubgp members went to back in March of 05' The pics of those GXP's show 1 hood strut. My 08' has 1 hood strut. All the online parts suppliers show only 1 required. Did any of you buy an 05' new that had 2 hood struts?

Pretty sure he's talking about the struts that hold the hood up.

Yes, not the diagonal brace. And is it struts or strut?

My 05 has one strut on the drivers side - hood doesn't have the bracket for one to mount on the passenger side.
