ZO6, it seems like the perfect assessory for anyone who spends time under the hood.

I wonder if it's worth going for the "elite" version?

Thanks ZO6, please do.

I'm getting one, that's why I'm interested in your feedback.

I'm picking up my 2007 black awd 3SS, S&S, and Nav, on Saturday. I'm totally psyched!

BTW ZO6, you think you're "ZO6 Dreaming," I'm gonna have two vehicles with Corvette engines, but no Corvettes.

OMG, I'm gonna buy a set right now. Imports should have hood props, not GM vehicles. That thing has almost been bent in half so many times for getting in my way

lol I found out the hard way about this problem with the tbss'. I was helping a guy put on some efans and I didn't know they were just proped up like that, so I had to use my head to hold the hood open while I banged away at the clutch fan.

Just a heads up. If you have a black TBSS, you might want to get the Elite kit since it has black powdercoated brackets. On another forum, someone mentioned that they could see the zinc coated bracket through the gap between the fender and hood. He ended up painting them black, which seems to be an option, but not as good as black powdercoated brackets which should hold up for life.
