Will this work with my stock hood latch and hinges?

Yes. This lip is engineered to fit within OEM hood mounting geometry, so your factory latch and hinges remain fully functional. Install the lip directly to your existing hood without modification to the latch assembly.

Do I need hood pins with this lip?

Hood pins are not required for fitment or security. They're an optional addition if you prefer extra hood retention for track use or custom builds. The OEM latch provides standard closure.

How much lighter is FRP compared to the factory hood?

FRP is significantly lighter than OEM steel, which reduces overall vehicle weight and unsprung mass. The exact weight savings depends on your specific hood configuration, but the material swap is a proven way to cut rotational inertia.
