This hood combines aggressive styling with practical functionality, featuring fully operational ram air vents that enhance engine cooling and airflow. Ideal for enthusiasts looking to improve both the appearance and performance potential of their Ram, the Type-S hood delivers a race-inspired look while maintaining reliable fitment and durability.

AIT Racing is a trusted name in motorsports and automotive performance, with products used in professional drifting series such as D1, Formula Drift, and NOPI Drift. This hood reflects that heritage, offering a high-quality solution for Ram owners seeking a functional and visually striking upgrade.

Key Features:

Designed with both form and function in mind, the Type-S Functional Ram Air Hood offers the following key features:

• Fully functional ram air vents that improve engine bay airflow and cooling efficiency
• Constructed from high-quality fiberglass reinforced resin (FRP) for strength and durability
• Gel-coat finish on both top and bottom surfaces for smooth prep and easy painting
• Includes aluminum wire mesh grill in vent openings to protect the engine compartment
• Utilizes factory hinges for straightforward installation and secure fitment
• Thicker and stiffer than factory steel or aluminum hoods, enhancing rigidity
• Designed to complement the aggressive styling of Dodge Ram trucks from 2009–2012

Construction & Design:

The Type-S hood is expertly crafted from fiberglass reinforced resin (FRP), a material known for its lightweight strength and resistance to corrosion. This construction ensures the hood is significantly stiffer than factory steel or aluminum options, providing enhanced durability and a solid feel. The gel-coat finish on both sides prepares the surface for custom paint applications, allowing owners to seamlessly match or customize their truck’s appearance.

Functional vents are integrated into the hood design, channeling fresh air directly into the engine bay to aid in cooling high-performance setups or heavy-duty applications. The inclusion of an aluminum wire mesh grill protects internal components from debris while maintaining airflow.

Installation & Fitment:

The AIT Racing Type-S Functional Ram Air Hood is designed to fit 2009–2010 Dodge Ram and 2011–2012 Ram models using the factory hinge mounting points for a straightforward installation process. Due to the FRP material’s increased thickness and rigidity compared to factory hoods, some adjustments may be necessary. Rubber stoppers might require trimming or removal, and fender alignment may need fine-tuning to achieve a perfect fit, especially if one fender sits lower than the other.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper alignment and finish. The hood ships unfinished and requires prep work and painting to match your vehicle’s color.

What's Included:

• AIT Racing Type-S Functional Ram Air Hood
• Aluminum wire mesh grill for vent openings
• Factory hinge compatibility (hinges not included)

Ideal For:

This hood is perfect for Dodge Ram owners who want to upgrade their truck’s exterior with a functional and aggressive-looking hood that improves engine bay airflow. It suits enthusiasts involved in motorsports, off-road driving, or anyone seeking enhanced cooling performance and a distinctive appearance for their 2009–2012 Dodge Ram.
