Do I need hood pins for this hood?

Yes, hood pins are required for secure fitment. They prevent hood flutter at speed and are standard for aftermarket hoods. Verify pin diameter and mounting hole spacing against your existing hardware or supplier specifications before installation.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

This hood uses factory mounting points, so it bolts to your existing hinges without modification. Verify your latch alignment after installation — minor adjustments may be needed for flush closure depending on your frame condition.

How much lighter is FRP compared to the OEM hood?
