MAJOR ISSUE WITH FRUNK KIT
For those of you whose frunk doesn't close all the way--I filed the screw holes on the strut brackets so I could move the bracket forward so the frunk could close all the way. All started out good until I had to calibrate the hood. First it would close and latch all the way, but wouldn't open. I could hear the latch unlock, but the hood didn't go up. So I lifted the hood to help it, but it wouldn't open. So I manually opened the hood and then tried to close it. I'm not exactly sure how/when it happened, but during the process of trying to get the hood to open and close and synced properly, there was a point where the hood was closed and didn't open and when i used the app to try and open it, it seems as if it was trying to close. Apparently, it pulled so hard to close that it pulled my hood into my windshield cracking my windshield! I was so pissed! Contacted Hansshow and requested a refund and cost to replace my windshield as I thought it doesn't pull hard enough to damage anything (like a hand caught in the frunk). I am totally sick about this as my car is only a month old. So be extra careful as it could result in major damage to your car!
Edit: So in thinking how my windshield could have cracked, I think when it was trying to close when the hood was already closed somehow moved or bent the hood hinges, because when the hood did open, it was closer to the windshield and broke the windshield when it opened fully. I've attached the factory struts again and the hood at the windshield is now below the level of the side fenders and the front gap at the front of the car to the bumper is twice as big as it was before.
