Carbon Fiber OEM+ Style Front Hood Bonnet - 2024+ Tesla Model 3

Upgrade your Model 3’s appearance and performance with this premium Carbon Fiber OEM+ Style Front Hood (Bonnet). Designed to replicate the factory fit and styling cues of the original hood while delivering the benefits of high‑end materials and lightweight construction. With genuine carbon fiber construction, a clear high‑gloss (or optional matte) finish, and full compatibility with factory mounting points, this hood offers a seamless blend of form and function.

The factory‑style design keeps the same contours, hood lines, gaps and mount points as your original hood, preserving the subtle elegance of the Model 3 while adding that performance‑inspired look. Meanwhile, the carbon fiber material brings weight savings, improved rigidity, and an unmistakable premium finish. Whether you’re customizing for style, reducing weight for performance, or simply want a top‑tier visual upgrade, this hood delivers.

Key Features

Here are the standout features of this hood:

• Premium Material & Construction

  • 100% dry carbon fiber (in many variants) or high‑quality vacuum‑infused carbon fiber, delivering excellent strength‑to‑weight ratios. 

  • UV‑resistant clear‑coat finish (or optional matte finish) protects the weave and keeps the part looking sharp over time.

  • Underside may be finished in FRP or carbon depending on options; structural integrity is maintained. 

• OEM+ Style Fit & Appearance

  • Designed for bolt‑on installation using factory mounting points — hinges, latch, panel gaps align to OEM spec. The Carbon Industries+1

  • The hood mimics the factory silhouette and lines (OEM+ style) rather than a dramatically altered “aftermarket aggressive” shape — so it will blend with the vehicle’s design language while still standing out.

  • Available in gloss or matte finishes, and multiple carbon weave/pattern (2×2 twill, forged, honeycomb) allowing personalization. 

• Performance & Practical Benefits

  • Weight savings: many dry‑carbon hoods claim up to 40‑50% weight reduction compared to OEM; the example hood fo

  • Improved front‑end mass reduction can benefit handling and braking response.

  • The high‑quality finish supports use on street or show cars; clear‑coat resists yellowing or UV damage with proper maintenance. The Carbon Industries

• Installation & Fitment Notes

  • Direct‑fit replacement for 2024+ Model 3 (Highland / Performance) chassis — ensure you select the correct year / trim.

  • Professional installation is recommended. As with many carbon hood installations, minor adjustments may be needed for perfect fitment and latch alignment.

  • Some manufacturers note the potential need for hood‑pins if the vehicle is used aggressively or at higher speeds — even when factory latch is retained. 

  • Pre‑painted versions may be available, but it’s common to receive the hood in a primed/unpainted state and then have it painted to match your vehicle color or clear‑coated. 

Benefits at a Glance

• Instantly elevates the front‑end aesthetics of your Model 3 with visible premium carbon fiber weave and sleek OEM+ styling.

• Lightweight construction reduces front‑end mass for better driving dynamics.

• High quality, direct‑fit design means fewer compromises on fit, finish or alignment vs cheap universal hoods.

• OEM+ style keeps the car’s original look and proportions rather than going radically aftermarket, making it suitable for both street and show use.

Important Notes & Considerations

• Confirm fitment explicitly for 2024+ Model 3 (Highland / Performance). Older Model 3 versions (2017‑2023) may have different hood dimensions or mount points—these are not interchangeable without modification. Because the hood is carbon fiber and shows the weave, any under‑hood components visible through gaps may become more apparent — ensure tidy engine‑bay / front compartment appearance if aesthetic is important.

• Clear‑coat finish requires proper care: use pH‑neutral washes, avoid harsh polishing without proper technique, and consider protective film or ceramic coating to protect the surface.

• If you plan to wrap or color‑match the hood, do so prior to installation if possible; easier in controlled shop environment.

• Always check local regulations: aftermarket body panels may require certification or inspection in some jurisdictions, especially if used in motorsport/track environments.

• Since carbon hoods may differ in crash behavior vs OEM steel/aluminum, confirm with your installer about compatibility with OEM crash/hood catch systems.
