Why are hood pins required?

Carbon fiber panels require positive retention to prevent lift at speed. Hood pins lock the panel securely and eliminate vibration or rattling during acceleration and highway driving. Install them into your existing hood latch points or factory pin bosses.

Will this hood fit my latch and hinges?

This hood is engineered to mount using your vehicle's OEM latch and hinge points. Before ordering, confirm your current hinges are in good condition and latches are clean and properly aligned — worn factory hardware will affect fitment and sealing.

What finish preparation does carbon fiber need?

Real carbon fiber requires clear coat protection to preserve the weave and resist UV damage and weather. Sand and prep the surface before applying your chosen finish. A two-part UV-protective clear coat is standard practice for longevity and gloss retention.
