    All black orders for streamlined struts have been filled and kits are going out with either option.

    Weight difference in streamlined struts are only 1lb heavier than finished and faired round struts.

    I would do both. Airfoiled tail 100% worth it.

    The struts, while widely expensive, are well worth it in my option. The time savings is nice, but not why I would get them if I did it again. I want them because you can push/pull/manhandle them to move the plane around. Also everyone will push on your struts, no matter how many "no push" signs you have on them. If you intend to fly off airport, having the option to push the plane around via the struts is WELL worth the money.
