Your DIY was great... I did refer to it... but totally missed the orientation of the strut.
Let me ask you this...

When you close your hood, is it still flush with the fender? My hood is about 3mm off, but just on the side with the damper. That's why I'm going to try your way whenever I get a chance. Then again, it could just be because my hood is a Seibon and the fiberglass tends to flex a little bit...
