AS 2 Style Double-Sided Carbon Fiber Hood

The VIS Racing AS 2 style hood is a high-performance body component precision-molded for the 2023-2026 Honda Civic FL5 Type R. This double-sided carbon fiber hood is crafted using an advanced vacuum infusion process, which ensures a uniform distribution of resin across the carbon fiber layers while maintaining a lightweight profile. By encapsulating a structural core between dual carbon layers, the design offers a robust, aerodynamic upgrade over the factory panel. Installation requires specific considerations to ensure the integrity of the carbon fiber structure. The manufacturer mandates the use of aftermarket hood pins for secure attachment during high-speed operation, which are sold separately. It is critical to note that you must NOT reuse factory hood struts, shocks, dampeners, or springs, as these components may cause the carbon fiber hood to crack. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure proper fitment. Designed primarily for off-road or track applications, this product complies with performance-focused standards. Users should verify local and state regulations regarding exterior modifications before installation. Each genuine VIS Racing hood features a badge of authenticity to ensure product quality.
