Since you have 2 inches of clearance still with the hood open, the struts should be ok. I know they open the hood more than the prop rod does.
Is it a lot heavier than the stock hood?
It's about 5 lbs heavier then the stock hood
Looks amazing. Love how it extends back towards the windshield. Similar to a true lift-off style hood.

Does anyone has this hood on a 2011-2012?

Thanks!

That hood looks great. Did you order it pre-painted or did you have to have it painted to match the car?

edit: Thinking back on when I was going to order a new hood for my TA, it has to be ordered unpainted and then driven around for a bit before being painted...is that correct?

I had it painted. It should've been baked for 3 hours but the shop didn't do it like I requested so now they get to start all over

I have it on my "11 and absolutely love it. Body shop did a great job.

Your car looks great, I noticed no hood vents. Did you notice any change in temps with out them? Do the stock hood vents work?

Cool, do you think if you put the stock hood vents in the cowl hood the temps would drop even more?
