General After Market Hood ?

General After Market Hood ?
Is everyone using factory struts on there after market fiberglass hood? I have a raptor hood and am worried they are too stiff. The factory hood was much heavier than the after market hood, so I should be able to use a softer strut. Anyone know where I can find some?

I was told all 98-02 hood struts are the same for the stock metal flat hood and the WS6 hood so it shouldn't be a problem. The company usually re-inforces the area for a little more stability

There's probably less than 5 pounds difference in weight between the two hoods though so that makes sense (based on a comparison of my stock TA hood and a Superhawk hood).
If the original poster is talking about one of the lighter hoods (10-15lbs), then different struts are probably in order.
