Duraflex 102177 1999-2005 Volkswagen Golf GTI Duraflex Boser Hood - 1 Piece

The Duraflex 102177 Boser Style Hood is a one-piece fiberglass replacement hood designed to deliver a race-inspired, aggressive aesthetic upgrade. Manufactured using Duraflex's proprietary blend of fiberglass, plastic, and flex resins, this hood offers a significant durability advantage over standard fiberglass parts — flexing under impact rather than cracking or shattering.

Key Features:

• Material: FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) — combines fiberglass, plastic, and flex resins for superior strength and flexibility
• Finish: Ships with a black gel-coat primer, ready for surface prep and custom paint
• Construction: Hand-laid fiberglass construction with integrated Boser-style raised center profile
• Reduced Damage Rate: Duraflex technology results in up to 75% fewer shipping and handling damages compared to conventional fiberglass
• Sold as: 1 piece

Installation Notes:

• Hood pins are required and are not included
• Minor sanding, trimming, cutting, and filling will be required prior to installation
• All parts should be dry-fitted and mounting holes drilled before final installation
• Black primer finish must be sanded and additional prep work completed before painting
• Do not use gas struts — they create excessive pressure that can damage the hood
• Professional installation is strongly recommended

The Boser-style hood features a distinctive raised centerline design that gives any build an aggressive, motorsport-inspired look. The black gel-coat primer serves as a base layer, reducing prep time before your custom paint application.
