SpoonFedTuning Strut Caps

Recommended Posts

I wanted to share another new product we just started production on. These are front strut caps made from carbon fiber, fiberglass, and carbon/Kevlar. We offer the carbon in 1x1 and 2x2 cloth. Also all of the caps are available in satin finish since they come out of the mold that way. We polish them for a gloss finish. The caps have a plastic stem on the bottom that threads onto the top of the strut. Since its a soft plastic it can't damage the strut thread if cross threaded. We also offer a taller version for adjustable struts. These fit VR upper strut mounts only and will not fit the earlier G60/16v strut mount.

They look excellent. I remember reading that they might have to be modified to fit over kw v3s ?

 

For all adjustable struts there is a version that is taller by a 1/4".

The fiberglass version that come in gloss black will be £58, carbon fiber will be £74, and carbon/Kevlar will be £74 as well. Shipping will be £13.

This is the stem prototype that we cast in plastic that will be bonded to the caps for attaching them to the strut.

Interesting, and very nice all at the same time. I may take a set, but will have to wait till my rain tray is ready to save on postage.

I think its a nice option instead of aluminum caps that have been around for so long now. I'll message you once your rain tray is ready next week and you can let me know if you want to get some strut caps.

What strut upper strut mounts does your car have? If they are like the VR6 upper strut mount top plate than these strut caps will fit.

Than I am assuming they are like the G60 version. There is a good chance our strut caps will fit. The only issue is clearing the top plate of the strut mount but I think it will. The mounting stem will match the strut size and thread pitch.

 

You can also upgrade to the VR upper strut mount since its a better and more durable bearing/mount. I did this on my car.
