I had them on for a couple years before I sold the car. The worked flawlessly. The price was right, great warranty on the stainless.
Here's a link to hte manufacturer page. They can be found cheaper at jnj

they look like a good alternative for bolt on ones though and they seem to lift the hood a little higher

I've been dragging my a-s and still haven't picked up a set too. I was looking at either the GrimmSpeed ones or the Gruppe-S ones. I also seen those IXIZ one's too, and a lot of people seem very happy with them. Hahaha, I think the only reason I wouldn't get those is because I'd have a hard time pronouncing them when people asked which brand! Just kidding. I want a set too.

Have Worx Tuning hood struts, have had them for 2.5 years now - no oiling no rust. They're also just plain black (you can take the brand label off) cylinders with stainless shafts - so they're pretty OEM looking if you like that sort of thing.
