I'm moving this thread because it's in the wrong location.

As for the hood, it's called a "raised hood" and it's been covered many times, it doesn't really do s**t. You can use the site's search feature which works well to search this.

KYB has like two common types of shocks: GR-2 and AGX. The former is more like a stock replacement and the latter gives you adjustability on stiffness. The raised hoods look terrible, BTW.
