Some customers prefer to add an automotive clear coat to our finish for additional depth and gloss but it is not necessary from a protection point of view. We finish them in a marine grade, clear gel coat for superior gloss, depth and UV protection. The water is ultimately directed weep holes that allow the water to exit the hood away from the intake and engine.ĪRE THE CARBON FIBER HOODS READY TO INSTALL? Yes, they ship ready to install, no painting required. WILL WATER GET INTO THE ENGINE THROUGH THE RAM AIR SCOOP? RKSport has developed an effective water management system for all our Ram Air hoods to prevent any water that enters the scoop from making it to the intake. This will greatly reduce the chance of marring the hood once it is painted. We strongly recommend pre-fitting your new hood prior to painting. The F-150 has multiple adjustment points to assure a perfect fit. Remove all stock hardware from the stock hood and re-install onto the RKSport Hood. Unbolt the hood from the hinges and remove the hood from the vehicle. HOW DIFFICULT ARE THE HOODS TO INSTALL? RKSport makes it easy! Disconnect the struts, wiper nozzle tubing and engine compartment lamp. Click HERE for detailed paint recommendations on all RKSport fiberglass hoods. We recommend a light sanding prior to applying primer and paint. This eliminates the possibility of paint damage during shipping and also allows you to pre-fit the hood prior to painting, which reduces the likelihood of scratching or marring the hood during final installation.ĭO THE HOODS SHIP 'PAINT READY'? Yes, your F150 hood will arrive sealed in a premium quality, gray, gel coat. We have found over the years that it is better to ship the hood 'paint ready'.

Featuring a low-noise profile with exceptional off-road traction, the General Grabber A/TX proves its performance in year-round use, gaining the endorsement for snow use as displayed in the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating. The Grabber A/TX is an aggressive all-terrain tire, providing exceptional off-road capability, durability and on-road comfort for everyday use. A set of 33-inch General Tire Grabber A/TX tires pairs perfectly with our ROUSH-designed wheels. We kept the center section, of the wheel, open for maximum airflow to cool the brakes. This wheel features a strengthened outer rim area to instill confidence when you find yourself in an off-road scenario. The design of the wheel was created with a balance of style, strength, and character. Underneath the 2022 ROUSH F-150, we’ve equipped a set of 20-inch Iridium Gray Satin Wheels. It also maintains the factory heat extraction that allows heat to escape the engine compartment. The ROUSH Fender Badging has also been refreshed and we’ve added a new fender vent in the factory location to not disrupt the body lines.

The Satin Black flares come as standard components but can be optioned with color-matched fender flares on select exterior color options*. As you work your way around the side of the 2022 ROUSH F-150, you’ll see a new set of ROUSH Fender Flares painted in Satin Black to match the front grille and other exterior components. The vents are painted in a Satin Black finish and allow heat to escape the engine compartment. Moving to the hood, we have added a set of ROUSH heat-extracting hood vents. Clearance lighting has been added to the upper portion of the grille. The front grille is painted Satin Black to match the rest of the exterior components on the ROUSH F-150. On the front of the 2022 ROUSH F-150 you’ll notice a refined ROUSH Front Grille with integrated lighting at the top. For 2022, we will continue building from the 302A XLT or 502A Lariat Ford F-150 chassis with your choice of 9 exterior color options.
