Why are hood pins required?

Hood pins secure lightweight FRP panels during high-speed driving and ensure the hood stays locked in place. Install them through the factory latch receptacles on both sides of the hood for safety and peace of mind.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

Yes. This hood uses factory mounting points, so your OEM latch and hinges install without modification. Check that your existing hardware is in good working condition before installation.

What prep is needed before painting?

Sand and prep the surface before applying your chosen finish. Ensure the hood is clean and free of dust and oils to achieve the best paint adhesion and final appearance.
