The AC-HD15DGCH-HM is a precision-engineered carbon fiber hood for the Dodge Challenger, delivering the iconic carbon weave with up to 50% weight savings over the factory steel panel. Built from 3K 2x2 twill carbon fiber via a vacuum-infused wet layup, this OEM-style direct replacement hood uses your existing hinge bolts and factory mounting points for a true bolt-on swap. No cutting, no drilling, and no body modification required. The AC-HD15DGCH-HM is the right call when you want a hood that performs as well as it looks, whether that means shaving weight for a track day or stepping up the street presence of your build.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this hood require drilling or cutting to install?
No. This hood is precision-molded from the factory panel and uses the existing hinge bolts and OEM mounting points. Minor bump stop adjustments are normal during final fitment, but no structural body modification is required.
Are hood pins required on a carbon fiber hood?
Yes, and Anderson Composites requires them. Carbon fiber hoods are significantly lighter than steel, which means aerodynamic lift at speed can overcome the factory latch. AeroCatch and Quic-Latch flush-mount systems are popular options that keep the look clean.
Can I reuse my OE gas struts?
No. Anderson Composites strongly advises against reinstalling OE gas struts or dampers on any composite hood. The pressure these shocks apply can crack the panel over time. Use a hood prop rod instead, and always close the hood carefully by hand.
Is a heat shield required?
Yes. Transfer the OEM heat shield to the new hood during installation. If the hood style prevents a direct transfer, an aftermarket universal heat shield is available at most performance retailers. Never run a carbon fiber hood without heat protection between the panel and the engine bay.
