{"product_id":"ws6-style-hood","title":"WS6 Style Hood","description":"The Duraflex WS6 Style Hood is a one-piece body panel engineered to provide an aggressive aesthetic for the 2011-2015 Chevrolet Cruze. Crafted from lightweight Fiberglass-Reinforced Plastic (FRP), this hood offers a significant weight reduction compared to traditional steel hoods while maintaining durability and impact resistance. Its WS6 design incorporates bold lines and functional vents for enhanced visual appeal, seamlessly integrating with the vehicle's OEM style.\n\nThis hood is designed with factory-style mounting points, allowing for direct attachment to the existing hinge and latch assembly. However, it is crucial to ensure that the vehicle's original hardware is in good condition; any worn or bent components should be replaced prior to installation to guarantee proper closure and alignment. For safe operation and to prevent flexing or lifting at higher speeds, the installation of hood pins is a mandatory requirement.\n\nThe FRP construction arrives with a raw finish, necessitating professional surface preparation, priming, and painting to achieve the desired aesthetic and a clean, integrated look. Standard automotive refinishing practices, including sanding and smoothing, are essential to ensure proper adhesion of primer and topcoat. Minor waves, pinholes, or uneven edges are considered normal characteristics of raw fiberglass aero parts and are addressed by body shops during the prep process.\n\nDuraflex parts are intended for serious custom builds and are best suited for vehicles undergoing bodywork or paint. Professional installation by a body shop familiar with fiberglass aerodynamics is recommended. Minor adjustments during the fitting process are expected and are part of achieving a custom, factory-quality result.","brand":"Duraflex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687866069304,"sku":"K2-4996-CHV-114-HD","price":580.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/664705473.webp?v=1784886923","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/ws6-style-hood","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
