Do I need hood pins for this hood?

Yes. Hood pins are required to secure this panel safely during operation. Verify your pin diameter matches the factory latch holes before installation to ensure proper fitment.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

This hood is engineered for factory-style mounting points. Confirm your existing latches and hinges are in good condition before installation — any bent or worn hardware should be replaced to ensure a flush, secure fit.

How does FRP compare to the OEM hood in weight?

FRP is significantly lighter than factory steel, which improves acceleration and handling while reducing strain on hood hinges. The weight savings also helps with overall vehicle dynamics and suspension wear over time.
