Seibon HD9396MZRX7-TS TS-Style Carbon Fiber Hood Mazda RX-7 FD3S

The Seibon HD9396MZRX7-TS is a TS-style carbon fiber hood hand-crafted for the 1993–2002 Mazda RX-7 FD3S. Engineered to replace the heavy factory steel hood, this carbon fiber panel delivers meaningful weight reduction while adding an aggressive, race-inspired appearance straight out of the box.

Seibon constructs this hood using a 3K 2x2 twill weave carbon fiber in a single one-piece carbon sheet for a seamless, consistent weave pattern throughout. The structural carbon layer is built directly into the mold and supported by a fiberglass substructure — a construction method that prevents the splitting and delamination found in lower-quality panels where carbon fiber is simply wrapped around a skeleton.

Key Features:

• Significant Weight Savings — Replaces heavy OEM sheet metal; standard carbon fiber construction offers up to 50% weight reduction over stock panels
• High Carbon/Resin Ratio — Optimized production formula yields exceptional panel stiffness and structural strength
• UV-Resistant Glossy Clear Coat — High-tech resin clear coat provides a deep, wet-look shine that resists chipping and flaking; show-ready direct from the box, no additional painting required
• One-Piece Carbon Sheet Construction — Ensures a consistent, uninterrupted weave pattern and eliminates weak points from multi-sheet construction
• Vented Design — Promotes engine bay heat extraction while contributing to aerodynamic performance
• Multi-Step Quality Control — Every panel is meticulously inspected before shipment to ensure fitment and finish quality
• Backed by Seibon's Fitment Guarantee and Clear Coat Warranty — Coverage against manufacturing defects including clear coat bubbling and heavy cloudiness

Professional installation is recommended. Seibon advises installing hood pins for safety when fitting any carbon fiber hood, and transferring the OEM heat shield to the new panel to protect the clear coat finish from engine bay heat. Some minor fitting adjustments may be required as part of standard aftermarket body panel installation.
