Review on BOXI 2pcs Front Hood Lift Supports Shocks for BMW 3 Series E90 E91 E92 E93 2006-2012 Hood 51237060550, SG402058 by Jose Cox

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Installs perfectly on BMW e90 2007 335i. A few minor annoyances - ball joints are not felt.

Fits perfectly on the BMW e90 2007 335i. A few minor annoyances: The ball joints are not as tight as the OEM and can be removed by hand unlike the OEM struts, but they remain. The ball joints should also be rotated 180 degrees from each other - I recommend using pliers to rotate the shaft half a turn rather than unscrewing the bolted ball joint at the end of the shaft. Finally (and yes, I'm picky) they have a lot of white letters on them. In most cases, you can hide the white lettering by selecting which stud to install on which side so that the lettering faces the firewall. These are very picky complaints but I still give 5 stars because they are cheap and slightly raise the hood.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Weight
