Do I need hood pins for this hood?

Yes, hood pins are required for proper fitment and safety. They secure the panel at the front edge and prevent hood lift at highway speeds. Purchase separately and install according to your preferred mounting style.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

This hood is engineered with factory mounting points for OEM hinge attachment. The rear latch area is designed to accept your vehicle's existing latch mechanism without modification. Verify alignment during fitment before final fastening.

How much lighter is FRP compared to the original hood?

FRP construction delivers significant weight savings over factory steel, improving acceleration and reducing strain on hood hinges. Exact weight difference varies by model, but FRP hoods are substantially lighter—a key reason for choosing this material over OEM.
