Why Upgrade to a Carbon Fibre Car Hood?
Serious Weight Reduction
Quality carbon fibre hoods can save up to 15kg compared to your factory steel bonnet – weight that's removed from high up in the vehicle, improving handling response and weight distribution. For track enthusiasts chasing lap times, this is meaningful performance gain from a single bolt-on modification.
Perfect OEM Fitment
Every carbon fibre hood in our range is designed specifically for your make and model. That means factory mounting points, proper panel gaps, and alignment that looks like it rolled off the production line.
Heat Extraction with Vented Options
Got a turbocharged setup or running aggressive tuning? Vented carbon fibre hoods improve engine bay cooling by allowing heat to escape more efficiently. Combined with an engine cover and a performance car hood, you'll keep temperatures in check even during spirited driving.
Show-Quality Finish
Functional and sleek, carbon weaves catch light beautifully with their signature pattern and pair perfectly with other carbon components. Whether you're building a full carbon exterior or adding strategic accents, a carbon bonnet makes an immediate visual impact.

Carbon Fibre Hoods FAQs
Do I need bonnet pins with a carbon fibre hood?
It depends on the design. Some carbon fibre hoods use factory latches without issues, while lightweight or track-focused options often benefit from bonnet pins for added security at speed. We'll advise based on your specific product and intended use.
What's the difference between 1x1 and 2x2 carbon weave?
The numbers refer to the tightness of the weave pattern. 1x1 (plain weave) has a tighter, smaller checkerboard pattern and is often considered more premium. 2x2 (twill weave) has a larger, more visible pattern. Both are strong and lightweight; it's purely a matter of aesthetic preference.
