The Advanced Fiberglass Concepts Ram Air Hood replaces the factory Bronco hood with a sculpted fiberglass panel and raised center vent section. It adds a more aggressive profile while remaining shaped around the sixth-generation Bronco’s grille, fenders, cowl, and factory body lines.



Buyers can choose a fiberglass center treatment for a uniform painted finish or select carbon-fiber or forged-carbon-fiber vent material for a contrasting appearance. As with any aftermarket fiberglass body panel, the hood should be fully test-fitted and adjusted before surface preparation or paint.

Use two people or professional lifting equipment to remove the factory hood and position the replacement. Test-fit the hinges, latch, bump stops, grille, fenders, and cowl; then adjust panel gaps and confirm safe latch engagement. Complete all sanding, fitting, and surface preparation before paint. Recheck latch operation after final assembly.
No. The fiberglass hood arrives in semi-gloss white and requires final preparation and paint.
Yes. Proper hood alignment, latch engagement, fiberglass preparation, and paint are safety- and appearance-critical.
The main hood is fiberglass; the selected variant determines whether the center vent treatment is fiberglass, conventional carbon fiber, or forged carbon fiber.
Yes. It is designed as a bolt-on replacement, but aftermarket fiberglass panels still require test fitting and adjustment.
No specific power gain should be assumed. Treat the hood primarily as a body and airflow-management upgrade unless performance testing supports a particular engine setup.
Coordinate the hood finish with compatible Ford Bronco fenders, grille components, and your body shop’s paint plan.
