It's a liftback, how light do you want it to be?

2 options:

1: install rear carbon bonnet for your GEN2 as suggested by Pomen_GTR
2: Go fitness centre and build up your body and your arm. Confirm lighter from time to time

Carbon bonnet?? How much is it?
Btw, heavy weight is because of rear wind screen or bonnet?

Which is why I wonder how heavy can it be...i opened one once, it feels okay with the help of the rear bonnet damper..

Feels okay for me for the front hood, not as heavy as it looks. I still prefer the classic way of the handle holding the hood

It helps if you really feel that the hood is just way too heavy for you, other than that is just cosmetics to me that the car looks better or save the trouble of finding the handle to hold the hood.

Cons, from some feedback, it might be faulty in a long run. Just like some rear bonnet with those dampers, I have come across some owners needing to hold the boot due to faulty dampers.

Oh well, there is always wear and tear in almost everything. Just don't buy the cheap ones

Nothing can be done unless u change to a carbon bonnet.

Stock cars, I feel more secure driving cars with a boot or hood that is heavy. Light ones imagine
if crash, cant imagine what is the damage. Not hard enough to protect us. Like a milo tin more scary.
