Are hood pins required for this hood?

Yes, hood pins are required. Factory latches alone are not recommended for FRP hoods at highway speeds. Install pins at both front corners for safety and peace of mind.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinge setup?

Yes. This hood is engineered to bolt directly to your vehicle's factory hinge and latch locations without modification. Verify that hinges and latches are in good working condition before installation.

How much weight does this hood save compared to the factory hood?

FRP hoods are significantly lighter than OEM steel, reducing front-end weight and improving handling balance. For exact weight savings on your vehicle, compare the FRP hood specs to your factory hood documentation.
