VSII-Style Seibon Carbon Fiber Hood [INSTALLATION]

A hood swap is a very simple task that you can do in your home. The hood in the 350z is secured by four bolts which you can take off with some basic tools.
Here is what the bolt will look like that yo take off to dismount the hood. We suggest once the hood is removed you take these bolts and screw them back onto the hood so you don’t lose them like we did. The Seibon hood comes with it’s own hardware so you can leave the OEM pieces with the OEM hood.
The hood goes on with four bolts and fits with ease. We ended up removing our mesh grill since it was getting a little too close to our Vortech supercharger belt and we liked the open look to the hood.
Here is the final setup on our flat carbon fiber hood. The Origin body kit and wheels are about to come and really complete the exterior look to this great Nissan 350z. Thanks to the guys at Seibon Carbon for this great product.
Is that the dry carbon seibon vented hood? It looks very dull so that’s the reason I ask. Too bad it doesn’t utilize the kouki Z hood lines and hump. Don’t get me wrong though, that hood looks awesome, can’t wait to see it all painted with the Origin body kit and seibon carbon fiber hood on you Nissan 350Z Z33!
Yes it is. The car is finished and painted.
