Hood Accessories

Hood Accessories: vents, struts and props that make the hood work harder

Hood accessories cover the hardware and trim that lives on and under your hood - vent kits that let underhood heat escape, strut and lift kits that hold the hood up and take the strain off worn factory gas struts, prop rods for older rigs, scoops that feed air, and covers for hood stacks. If your hood drops on its own, runs hot in traffic, or you want to move more air into or out of the engine bay, this is the category that fixes it. Most of these are bolt-on jobs a competent home mechanic can handle in a driveway with hand tools.

What ThreePiece stocks

We currently have 11 products in this category from 6 brands: Ford Racing (4 in the range), Daystar (3), plus Kentrol, Fleece Performance, Roush and Baja Designs. Current in-stock pricing runs from $38 to $1,392 - that's the live range for what's on the shelf, not a standing promise. The high end is the Ford Racing 20-21 Mustang GT500 Carbon Fiber Hood Vent Kit; further down you'll find the Roush 2005-2014 Mustang Hood Strut Kit and the Ford Racing 21-24 Bronco Hood Lift Kit in the mid range, plus budget picks like the Kentrol 72-86 Jeep CJ Hood Prop Rod and the Fleece Performance 5in Straight Cut Hood Stack Cover.

Coverage here is vehicle-specific. Of the 11 parts, 7 carry fitment data, and the makes we cover are Ford, Jeep and Polaris - think Ford Mustang and Bronco, Jeep Wrangler and CJ, and the Polaris RZR, across model years from 1972 to 2024. Off-road buyers should look at the Baja Designs Polaris RZR XP Turbo Hood Scoop Kit.

How to choose

Start with the job. If your hood won't stay up or slams shut, a strut or lift kit is the fix - it's the cheapest way to save your knuckles and is a straight swap. On older Jeeps without gas struts, a prop rod is the simpler, lower-cost route. If underhood heat is your problem, a vent kit moves air out; a scoop moves air in. Carbon fiber pieces like the GT500 vent kit sit at the top of the price range and are as much about the look as the function, while steel and polished hardware like the Kentrol prop rod keep it simple and affordable. Match the part to your exact year and model first - a Mustang strut kit and a Bronco lift kit are not interchangeable.

What else you need

Hood work often gets done alongside other exterior upgrades. Browse the full Exterior section, or the sibling categories: Lighting, Truck and SUV, Mud Flaps, LED Light Bars, and Tow Hooks. If you're adding a scoop or vent as part of a wider build, they pair naturally with those.

Fitment and ordering

Confirm the part fits your exact year, make and model before you buy - if you're unsure, call our fitment help line at 813-535-5801 or reach us through Contact Us. All orders ship with free shipping, and Affirm and Katapult financing is available at checkout to spread the cost.
