Black Ops Auto Works Original Venom Hood
We use a UV Clear gel coat only. This finish is buffed to a shine on all of our carbon fiber parts and accessories. The same gel coat is used on our fiberglass version, except that gel coat is black in color.
We do not use an automotive clear coat that yellows, fades or cracks over time. If your carbon fiber gets scratched there is no need to re-clear the whole part. Simply wet sand and re-buff for a completely new look. Digs gouges, scratches from flying debris? These can be filled with a layer of clear gelcoat and wet-sanded smooth and buffed again.
Gel coat has a tendency of drying out resulting in a white haze we recommend waxing with a Pure Carnauba at lease once a month for best results. Think of it like dry skin you have to keep it coated at all times. Ceramic coatings and PPF wrapping is fine for gel coat and poses no damage from long term use.
Note: We do not recommend fiberglass to be installed as is It is meant to be painted prior to installation.

Hood Pin Option
- These are recommended as a secondary option to the OEM Catch / D Ring
- These are to prevent hood failure from an incorrectly adjusted bump stop and to safeguard the D Ring from failure.
- D rings and Bump stops work together to hold the hood’s nose from bouncing and should be adjusted accordingly to stop the nose of the hood from bouncing.
- Hood pins are not meant to replace an OEM Catch / D Ring if you want to pin your hood with no Catch / D Ring a hood pin such as a large Hotchkis pin should be run.
