Does this hood require hood pins?

Yes — hood pins are required for safe operation. Verify your vehicle's existing pin setup and latch alignment before installation to ensure proper fitment and closure.

Will this latch work with my OEM hood hardware?

This hood is designed to use factory latch and hinge points on your vehicle. Check that your existing hood release mechanism and latches are in good condition; a worn OEM latch may need replacement to seat the new panel correctly.

How much weight does FRP save compared to steel?

FRP hoods are significantly lighter than factory steel. The exact weight savings depends on your specific vehicle setup — compare your current hood weight against the new panel once received to confirm the reduction for your build.
