I just glued some pieces of rubber to the hood. It's worked so far.

Anyone took a grinder to the bottom of the mounting flanges on the STB? Not sure how thick the plate is, but it would make it sit lower on the towers.2007 Pontiac G6 GTP - 3.6L DOHC VVT

Got mine in today and it went straight on. I didn't even take it into the garage, I popped the hood and bolted her up. And took it around the block. I will hunt for something to stop the rubbing.Originally posted by NikkiYou are an e-pimp.Originally posted by beitodesstrafeI tried too, my penis way too big

Re: GM Strut Brace and the Hood: Rubbing Issues
I put mine between two trees and bent it. You cant even tell and there is enough play
in the bolt holes to accomodate widening it which lowers the bar.
Anyway...there is still play left. I may do it a bit more.Please consider supporting G6P -Tap here

Re: GM Strut Brace and the Hood: Rubbing Issues
Ya I noticed I'm having SERIOUSE rubbing issues with it and the MPD hood. I'm gonna take it out and bend it. I looked the other day and the padding I put on to stop it with the stock hood were almost starting to rip cause it's so bad.2015 Chevy SS, Perfect Blue Metallic, Sunroof, No Spare, M6
