Seibon OEM-Style Carbon Fibre Hood – 2012–2013 Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S (ZN6/ZC6) | Factory Profile | OEM Replacement | Gloss Finish
The Seibon OEM-Style Carbon Fibre Hood for the 2012–2013 Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S (ZN6/ZC6) is a direct-fit OEM-replacement carbon fibre hood that replicates the factory hood profile exactly — no vents, no scoops, no styling additions — a clean, factory-profile carbon fibre replacement for the factory steel hood that delivers significant front-end weight reduction with a premium exposed carbon fibre appearance. The OEM-style hood is the correct choice for BRZ and FR-S owners who want the weight reduction and visual impact of a carbon fibre hood without departing from the factory hood's clean, understated profile. The Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S (ZN6/ZC6) are among the most celebrated driver-focused sports cars of the modern era — a lightweight, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive platform with a dedicated enthusiast community where weight reduction and exterior modifications are a core part of the ownership experience. Seibon carbon fibre components are hand-crafted using a consistent weave pattern, exceptional carbon/resin ratio for high stiffness and strength, and a glossy clear coat finish that does not chip or flake. Every component is meticulously inspected before leaving Seibon's production facility.
Key Features:
- OEM-style profile — replicates the factory BRZ/FR-S hood profile exactly — no vents, no scoops, no styling additions — a clean, factory-profile carbon fibre replacement that maintains the car's original lines
- Carbon fibre construction — hand-crafted carbon fibre replaces the factory steel hood — significant weight reduction at the front of the BRZ/FR-S for improved front-end weight distribution and reduced unsprung mass
- OEM replacement fitment — direct replacement for the factory ZN6/ZC6 hood using the factory hinge and latch mounting points — no modification required for installation
- Consistent weave pattern — Seibon's production process ensures a consistent, uniform carbon fibre weave pattern across the entire hood surface
- Exceptional carbon/resin ratio — high carbon/resin ratio creates high product stiffness and extra strength without unnecessary resin weight
- Glossy clear coat finish — coated with a glossy clear coat that does not chip or flake — protecting the carbon fibre weave and maintaining the hood's appearance over time
- Seibon quality — over 20 years of carbon fibre production experience — every component meticulously inspected before shipping
OEM-Style — Why Choose the Factory Profile:
Seibon offers multiple hood styles for the BRZ/FR-S — including vented and scooped designs alongside the OEM-style. The OEM-style is the correct choice for owners who want the weight reduction and carbon fibre aesthetic without altering the car's factory hood profile. The BRZ/FR-S's factory hood has clean, flowing lines that suit the car's overall design language — the OEM-style carbon fibre hood preserves those lines while replacing the factory steel with lightweight carbon fibre. For owners building a subtle, refined build where the carbon fibre weave is the visual statement rather than a vented or scooped hood design, the OEM-style is the correct choice.
Weight Reduction — BRZ/FR-S Context:
The Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S are already lightweight sports cars — but the factory steel hood is one of the heaviest single body panels on the car. A carbon fibre hood replacement removes significant mass from the front of the car where it has the greatest effect on weight distribution and front-end agility. For BRZ/FR-S owners building a track-focused or weight-reduction-focused car, the Seibon OEM-style carbon fibre hood is a meaningful and visually impactful weight reduction upgrade.

What's Included:
- Seibon OEM-style carbon fibre hood — gloss finish — 2012–2013 Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S ZN6/ZC6 (SEIHD1213SCNFRS-OE)
- Refer to Seibon's product documentation for complete hardware contents
Installation Notes:
- Professional installation by an experienced body shop strongly recommended — hood replacement requires correct hinge alignment, correct gap adjustment at the fenders and front bumper, and correct latch adjustment for safe hood operation at speed
- Verify correct hood latch engagement before driving — a hood that is not correctly latched is a serious safety hazard at speed. Verify that the primary latch and safety catch both engage correctly before the first drive.
- Carbon fibre requires UV protection — apply a quality UV-resistant clear coat or carbon fibre sealant to protect the carbon fibre weave from UV degradation. Unprotected carbon fibre will yellow and degrade over time with UV exposure.
- Do not use abrasive polishes or compounds on the carbon fibre surface — use only carbon fibre-safe detailing products
- Inspect the hood for shipping damage before installation — document any damage before accepting delivery and contact Straight Six Imports immediately if damage is found
