Hood Louver Kit Gloss Black Powdercoat

The Verus Engineering Hood Louver Kit is engineered to specifically address engine bay heat and pressure issues in the Mk7 Golf R and GTI. By facilitating improved outflow of hot air, these louvers enhance the efficiency of the radiator and charge air cooler, leading to better overall cooling stack performance. Furthermore, the reduction in underhood pressure contributes to a decrease in front-end lift, effectively generating a small amount of downforce. Designed using scan data and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), the placement of these louvers complements the hood's contours while preserving crucial underhood structural metal. This meticulous design ensures that the hood's structural rigidity is maintained, integrating the louvers seamlessly into the vehicle's aesthetic. The kit is constructed from durable 0.063 thick 6061 aluminum, CNC laser cut for precision, and features a gloss black powdercoat finish for enhanced durability. Stainless steel flush clinch studs and serrated nuts are included for secure mounting and allow for easy removal of the vents for cleaning. Each kit comes complete with left and right hood louvers, left and right wickers, two cut templates, a small Verus vinyl sticker, and a comprehensive hardware kit necessary for installation. The design prioritizes retaining the OEM hood's structural integrity, and the included cut-out template simplifies the installation process. This hood louver kit is ideal for Mk7 Golf R/GTI owners seeking a purposefully designed, built, and tested solution to improve their vehicle's cooling and aerodynamic performance.
