DISCLAIMER All carbon fiber and fiberglass hoods are going to be incompatible with OEM gas strut hood lifters that may be equipped on your vehicle. To use gas struts with a lightweight hood will require using lower weight rated lifters. Using OEM spec lifters can cause stress and cracking on a composite hood and will void the warranty on the item. We also highly recommend using hood pins with all composite hoods in addition with the stock style hood latch. They will act as a fail safe in the event of a latch failure. Composite hoods are much lighter than a metal hood and the latch is bonded in place opposed to being bolted or welded in on a steel hood. Installing a composite hood without hood pins is done so at your own risk. Driven By Style recommends Aero Catch brand locking style hood pins.
Hood pins are required.

Shipping - Save with Bundle Shipping:
When it comes to shipping body kits and aerodynamic products, we offer a convenient grouped shipping option. You can select up to three body kit items—such as a front bumper, side skirts, and a rear bumper—and they will be shipped together for a single shipping charge. However, once you add a fourth item to your cart, the shipping costs will be recalculated. At that point, you’ll need to select a new shipping option for what we classify as an "oversized body kit."
***Please note that - hoods, trunks, and hatches do not qualify for this bundled shipping option and must be shipped separately.

**We recommend that any carbon fiber parts that see exposure to the sun
get sprayed with automotive clearcoat at your local autobody shop. Automotive
clearcoat will give your Carbon Creations product 5-10 years of protection from
the sun's harmful UV rays. To prepare your carbon fiber part for clearcoat it
will need to be sanded to a 400 grit finish and then rubbed with a gray or red
scotch brite pad. Clean the surface with denatured alcohol prior to spraying the
clearcoat. For any assistance with composites related finishing please contact
our in house specialist here.
