Anderson Composites 2008-2024 Dodge Challenger Type-OE Dry Carbon Decklid

The AC-TL0910DGCH-OE-DRY is an Anderson Composites dry carbon trunk lid built specifically for the 2008-2024 Dodge Challenger, built with the same pre-preg autoclave process used in Formula 1, aerospace, and elite endurance motorsport, achieving up to 70% weight savings. Constructed from pre-preg 3K 2×2 twill carbon fiber, autoclave-cured via a pre-preg layup cured in an autoclave under extreme heat and pressure, this decklid installs using your factory hinge bolts and latch hardware with no modification required. Up to 70% weight savings over the OEM steel panel translates directly into improved front-to-rear balance and power-to-weight ratio, the kind of gain that costs nothing in drivability and pays back every time the car moves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the AC-TL0910DGCH-OE-DRY preserve factory trunk release and latch function?
Yes. The decklid is built around the OEM latch and release geometry. Factory power trunk release, key fob function, and interior handle all operate normally with this lid installed.

Can I mount a factory or aftermarket spoiler on this trunk lid?
Yes. Anderson Composites preserves factory spoiler mounting provisions. OEM spoilers transfer directly, and Anderson Composites’ own carbon spoilers are designed to pair with this trunk lid for a fully coordinated rear setup.

What actual weight savings can I expect?
Anderson Composites dry carbon construction saves up to 70% over the factory steel panel. On most Challenger platforms the OEM steel decklid weighs between 20 and 40 pounds, so the reduction in high-mounted rear mass is meaningful for both handling balance and power-to-weight ratio.

Does this trunk lid work with my backup camera?
On vehicles where the backup camera is in the rear bumper or license plate area there is no conflict. On vehicles with a camera integrated into the factory trunk lid, verify the camera mounting location relative to the new lid before ordering.

7. Tighten all hinge bolts to factory torque specification
8. Test the latch, release, and spoiler function before returning the vehicle to service
