The DV8 Offroad JK Hood gives your Jeep a whole new look, and with the price tag other Jeep owners will appreciate the money you spent to make your jeep stand out. The fact that you don’t come across these hoods amongst other Jeep owners a lot allows your Jeep to stand out from the crowd. The hood is very light weight, and provides a easy install. I didn’t come across any complications when installing this hood.
REVIEW INSIGHTS
According to DV8 Offroad’s website, this hood fits 2007-2015 jk’s. My jeep is a 2016, and I noticed that the hood has a slightly larger gap on the sides of the hood from the body compared to previous years. I did speak with a DV8 employee asking if it would fit prior to buying the hood. Another issue was that a lot of body shops wouldn’t touch it, because it was aftermarket fiberglass mod. I had to call well over 10 shops.
If you do not have a proper drill setup take the jeep to a shop to have them remove the 4 hood latch screws. These screws are painted over and I had to use a air compressor compact drill to take them off. Get quotes from Shops that will work on after market and fiberglass mods. If you live in the Riverside CA area DV8 warehouse has great deals on used or slightly damaged mods. Discounts as high as 75% off hoods, bumpers and other mods.
