saw some flip keys at PoL, looked good.
Struts dont look a bad mod, either.

Bonnet struts would be my choice, the stainless exhaust trim looks a bit naff, and Bobby Brown may be able to do a better deal on flip keys.

To be fair to bobby, his are £20 for the same key/fob, these are much much less.
The tip is better than the rusty one i currently have on the car, and being 304 stainless, less likely to rust i would have thought.
I do like the bonnet lifters, just need to make a small bracket for them.
I'm really stuck 
Cheers

Exhaust tip is tacky, flip key is cheaper than Bobby Browns (I'm sure he posted why they didn't work somewhere) and I'd look for civic lifters as they come with a bracket that fits to the hinge and saves drilling (or drilling twice and leaving holes as I saw the other day), they are more expensive but easier to fit.

Do the only thing people are going to see and get the tip
Those twin pipes will look really naff though. get yourself a 2.5 inch outward rolled tip

I agree about the Civic struts, straight fit, no drilling, or extra brackets required.

I can make the bracket myself, without the need to drill into my bonnet. It is just a 'L' shaped piece of steel, and bolted to the bonnet. The only drilling, is into the bracket.
Cheers
