Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

Yes. The one-piece design includes factory mounting points that align with OEM latches and hinges. No drilling or modification required — it bolts directly to your existing hardware.

Does this hood require hood pins?

Hood pins are optional. The factory latch will secure the panel during normal driving. Add pins if you're tracking the vehicle or want additional security at high speed.

What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand the primer surface to ensure proper paint adhesion, then apply your chosen basecoat and clear. Consult your paint supplier's prep guidelines for primer compatibility with your finish system.
