The Anderson Composites AC-HD9704CHC5-TD-GF is a Type-TD fiberglass performance hood hand-crafted for the 1997–2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5. Built with a lightweight fiberglass construction, this hood delivers a distinctive aggressive styling upgrade while reducing overall vehicle weight compared to the factory hood.

Key Features:

• Fiberglass construction — lightweight and durable, designed to reduce nose weight
• Removable and paintable metal mesh screens — customize the look or prepare for paint to match your build
• Fiberglass support skeleton bonded to the underside for added rigidity and structural support
• Mounts with OEM hardware, hinges, and latch — no custom fabrication required
• Delivered in an unpainted gel-coat finish — requires standard pre-paint prep including sanding and primer
• No drilling required for installation

Important Installation Notes:

• Hood pins are required for safety — Anderson Composites recommends AeroCatch or Quic-Latch style pins
• A heat shield is required due to the hood's vented design
• Do not install gas hood shocks, dampers, or struts
• Requires normal pre-paint preparation including sanding and primer prior to painting

The Anderson Composites Type-TD hood is an excellent choice for Corvette C5 owners seeking a functional, race-inspired hood upgrade with OEM-style installation convenience.
