Do I need hood pins for this hood?

Yes, hood pins are required for this installation. They secure the hood and prevent accidental opening at speed. Install them on both sides of the hood for proper support.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

This hood is engineered for direct fitment with factory hinge and latch assemblies. Verify your hinge condition before installation — worn or damaged hinges may require replacement to ensure proper closure and alignment.

How much lighter is this than the OEM hood?

FRP construction delivers significant weight savings compared to the factory steel hood, which improves handling and reduces unsprung mass. Exact weight reduction depends on the OEM reference point — check your vehicle's service manual for factory hood specs.
