Does this wing require hood pins to stay secure?

Hood pins are not required for this wing installation. It mounts using the factory hood attachment points, so your OEM latching system handles all the load. If you're running a track setup or open-track car, hood pins are a separate safety upgrade choice.

Will the wing work with my factory hood latch and hinges?

Yes. This wing is designed to use your existing hood hardware without modification. The weight penalty is minimal, so your factory latch and hinge assembly will handle it without issue.

How does FRP handle UV and weathering over time?

FRP holds up well outdoors when properly finished. Sand and prep the surface, then apply your chosen primer and paint system — that sealed finish protects the plastic from UV degradation. Without a paint or clear coat, raw FRP will eventually chalk and fade, so finishing is key to longevity.
