Do I need hood pins for this panel?

Yes, hood pins are required. FRP panels are lightweight, so pins prevent hood flutter at highway speeds and keep the panel secure during aggressive driving. Install pins at the factory drilling points on your frame.

Will this bolt to my OEM latches and hinges?

Yes. This hood uses factory mounting points and integrates with your existing latch and hinge hardware. No modification to your vehicle's frame or hardware is necessary.

How much lighter is FRP compared to the original hood?

FRP is significantly lighter than OEM steel, which reduces unsprung weight and can improve handling and acceleration. For exact weight savings on your vehicle, weigh the panels directly before installation.
