What's a Hood Panel? It's the flat sheet of steel or metal that shields the engine compartment of your Nissan. This vital component protects many of the key car parts that keep your vehicle working as it should.
Without a Hood Panel in place, components like your transmission and engine would become exposed to destructive elements such as sunlight, water, dust, dirt, and other harmful substances. Thus, negatively impacting the entirety of your Nissan.
Your Hood Panel can become blemished or damaged in a few different ways, including dents, scratches, and peeling caused by external factors like road trash, hail, and from brute force caused by a collision or car accident. A failing hinge might also be to blame, since this component connects the Hood Panel to your Nissan's frame.
However, what seems the most minor — dents and scratches — could also lead to serious problems too. These seemingly small issues can leave the components beneath your hood exposed to the elements, which can cause things like rust and corrosion.
Not only does your Hood Panel protect the performance parts within vehicle while providing repair and maintenance access, but it can also drastically affect the design, style, and appearance of your Nissan. If your current Hood Panel is damaged, make sure you get the right fit, look, and function for your ride by ordering authentic OEM components from Nissan Parts.
