VRS Style Carbon Fiber Hood

The VIS Racing VRS Style carbon fiber hood is a specialized aftermarket body component designed specifically for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R (FK8). It utilizes a sophisticated two-part construction, bonding a premium carbon fiber top layer to a one-piece smooth underside shell with high-grade epoxy resin for increased structural integrity. The surface is finished with an ultra-clear, UV-resistant polyurethane coating to prevent fading and sun damage, ensuring a durable, high-gloss appearance. Manufacturing for this hood employs the proprietary Vacuum Infusion Process (VIP), which allows for a weight reduction of 10-20% compared to previous model iterations while maintaining high durability. This weight savings is intended to improve the vehicle's aerodynamic profile and overall performance on the track and the street. Installation requires specific safety considerations. Hood pins are mandatory for all installations to ensure the hood is properly secured. It is critical not to reuse stock hood struts, dampers, shocks, or springs, as the tension from these components can cause the carbon fiber material to crack. This product is strictly for off-road use unless otherwise permitted by your local regulations.
