So recently I replaced my trunk with a carbon fiber seibon trunk. Due to the light weight of the trunk, the springs are too strong and make the trunk fly open when i press the trunk release button. Is there any way to remove the spring or reduce the tension?

I found this on the GS forums, not sure if this applies to the IS platform though, but it's worth a look.

I just got in the habit of having my other hand on top of the trunk to catch it when I open mine.

His trunk is heavier. so he adjusted the tension to stronger. We got seibon trunk, which is lighter. so we need even less tension. NOT stronger tension. I don't think that would help. The only way I could think of is fabricating a shock hinge and install a trunk shock. It is annoying too. I almost got hit in the face by the trunk so many times.

So, did anyone check to see if GS trunk guide works for IS platform?

yeah my trunk is much lighter if it has the same adjustable holes like the gs i would probably just cut a new hole further away to reduce the tension on the spring

would it be possible to replace the little gas struts in there? for stronger or weaker lift?
