ImageA limited number of custom made rear engine lid support strut kits.

They include custom waterjet stainless bracket, custom re gassed strut, ball pivot attachment to body.

Please don't confuse these with other poorly designed units that use generic brackets that where not designed for your car.

Would you be willing to make one that replaces the spring for the trunk? Not like the two'srus on which attaches to the existing spring.

well unfortunately the reason two's has done this is to offset the cost of the brackets. As if you remove the OEM spring then the aftermarket strut has nothing to attach onto. So then you would have to manufacturer some sort of brackets.
As you can see they have used a generic bracket at the bottom that doesn't fit correctly.

If your trunk spring is weak, I have a quick fix that can improve it.
