Hood Category

The car hood, also known as the bonnet, is a vital exterior component protecting the engine compartment from debris, weather, and impact. Typically made from steel, aluminum, or composite materials, it contributes to the vehicle's aerodynamics and overall structural integrity. Modern car hoods often incorporate sound insulation and crumple zones for enhanced safety during collisions. Proper maintenance of the hood, including latch and hinge inspections, ensures reliable engine access and vehicle security.
