The Mazda hoods will secure the safety of your Mazda’s engine compartment. And why not, these parts are crafted just to deliver that kind of performance, coupled with aesthetic value that will make your Mazda model a cut above the rest. The hood, also known as the flop top or the bonnet, is a hinged cover over the engine that is designed to allow access to the engine compartment whenever you need to check some parts or you need to repair something. In most passenger vehicles like your Mazda, the hood may be held down by a concealed latch. Among most race cars or autos with aftermarket hoods which do not use the factory latch system, they may be held down by hood pins. These functional parts may contain a hood ornament, a hood scoop, and power bulge or wiper jets. Hoods are usually crafted from steel. Today however, the use of aluminum is fast gaining popularity among auto manufacturers. Many aftermarket hood makers may also construct these parts from fiberglass, carbon fiber, or dry carbon.
