MODE Racing Blog

Fresh from SEIBON are the OEM Style front hood and rear trunk and a really nice vented “TS” style Hood. MODE Racing is the first and ONLY ones with these pieces in the World!

Nicely packaged was first, the OEM style hood. The quality was second to none. The clearcoat was nice and shiney and the weight, well, it was far lighter than the stock one that Jason and I had to remove from the cars. It took two of us to remove the OEM hood and the SEIBON hood was blantantly lighter.

Next was the trunk and this was a very light piece! The weave was excellent and very well made. All the holes on the parts are pre-drilled for easy installation. We were very pleased.

Showing that it’s a genuine SEIBON Carbon peice. As I mentioned earlier, the parts come pre-drilled and excessive amounts of fiberglass were removed. This shows that the quality of the part is far better than copies you will probably see in the next few months floating around ebay and other sites that sell hoods for dirt cheap. MODE Racing only uses parts that are of high quality on the project cars.

Finally the “TS” style hood from SEIBON. This will probably be one of the more popular hoods that is going to be offered by SEIBON. The vents are pre cut and smoothed out. Quite functional as it will flow all the hot air out of the engine bay. All even weaves around the vents as well. Some of the lower quality ones show uneven weaves around vents.

Here’s a close look at the vents:

Keep an eye out on the blog as we install these parts on our project cars! For more information, please contact SEIBON Carbon and let them know that MODE Racing sent you!
