Type-OE Carbon Fiber Hood

The Anderson Composites Type-OE Hood is crafted from wet carbon fiber, offering a more affordable alternative to dry carbon fiber while providing UV protection and a high-gloss finish. This construction method involves compressing the carbon fiber fabric between two layers of marine-grade resin with UV inhibitors, followed by a gel coat for enhanced sun protection. Designed with OE styling in mind, this hood integrates seamlessly with the stock lines of your 2005-2009 Ford Mustang, providing a custom, high-end appearance that stands out. Beyond aesthetics, the carbon fiber construction contributes to weight reduction, which can improve track performance. Installation of this hood requires specific considerations. It mounts using OE hardware, but also necessitates hood pins for safety. It is crucial not to install gas hood shocks, dampers, or struts, and a heat shield is also required. The hood can be painted if desired. Please note that this part ships via freight and expedited shipping is not available.
