Do hood pins come with this, or do I need them?

This hood uses factory latch and hinge points — no hood pins are required unless you're planning a track build or want additional security. For street use, the factory setup works as designed.

Will this fit if I've upgraded my hinges or latch?

This hood is engineered for factory hinge and latch geometry. If you've swapped either component, verify the new mounting holes align with the factory hood dimensions before purchasing. Contact the hinge or latch supplier with measurements if unsure.

How does weight compare to the factory hood?

FRP panels are significantly lighter than OEM steel hoods, resulting in improved front-end response and reduced unsprung weight. Exact weight savings depend on your vehicle's original setup, but the difference is noticeable in acceleration and braking balance.
