If you own a Subaru, you have many reasons to be proud of your ride. Many Subaru owners cite its high ratings from the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.) Other Subaru owners choose its sporty and rugged exterior and appreciate its interior comfort and sufficient storage space. In short, there is a reason that Subaru commercials stress “love” as the reason its owners purchase their cars.
Many Subaru owners have enjoyed updating the exteriors of their cars to fit their vision of how they perceive their cars. One popular upgrade for sleek, sporty Subaru WRX 2015 owners is to replace its standard hood with a carbon fiber hood. They may want their cars’ appearance to stand out, but here are some of the other reasons to order a carbon fiber hood for your Subaru WRX 2015.
Understanding Carbon Fiber Material
Carbon fiber consists of long, thin strands of carbon. The thin diameter of each strand belies its tensile strength. Carbon fiber is resistant to high temperatures and exhibits low thermal expansion. Its sleek appearance adds unmistakable panache to your Subaru.
Weight Reduction and Performance Improvement
A standard steel car hood can add hundreds of pounds to the weight of your car – and that can’t help but slow you down. You'll notice your car's smooth, seamless performance by choosing a carbon fiber hood instead of a steel hood.
Improved Heat Dissipation
The styling of Subaru’s carbon fiber hoods includes an upward slant over the car's bonnet. This unique design creates a vacuum at the side vents. These vents then become heat extractors that intentionally dissipate heat while driving.
Durability and Strength
Carbon fiber is made by heating polyacrylonitrile (a combination of acrylic and nitrate) and solidifying the strands to consolidate carbon into each strand. Carbon fibers are five times as strong as steel and twice as stiff as steel.
Ease of Maintenance and Care
Caring for your carbon fiber hood means washing it with mild soap and water and then waxing it to preserve its appearance. A carbon fiber repair kit can repair small chips and cracks. Spraying a UV protectant on your hood will avoid color fading.
