Does this hood work with factory latch and hinges?

Yes — this hood uses factory mounting points. Your OEM latch and hinges bolt directly to the panel. No modifications to the latch mechanism or hinge structure are required.

Will I need hood pins with an FRP hood?

Hood pins are optional. This hood is designed to secure with factory latching just like OEM steel. Many owners choose pins for peace of mind during high-speed driving or track use — that choice is yours based on your driving style.

How much weight does FRP save compared to the factory hood?

FRP is significantly lighter than OEM steel. The exact weight reduction depends on your vehicle's factory hood. For precise weight data, compare the factory spec with the panel once you have it in hand — the difference will be noticeable in handling and weight distribution.
