Product Description

Transform the front-end appearance of your Corvette C8 with the Anderson Composites Type-Z1 Double-Sided Carbon Fiber Hood. Inspired by the aggressive styling of the upcoming ZR1 platform, this premium carbon fiber hood delivers exotic supercar aesthetics while maintaining OEM-style fitment and functionality.

Constructed using high-quality 3K 2x2 twill carbon fiber, the Type-Z1 Hood features a fully finished double-sided gloss carbon fiber design, allowing both the exterior and underside to showcase the premium carbon weave.

A marine-grade UV-resistant gel coat protects the carbon fiber from fading and oxidation while delivering a deep, high-gloss appearance.
