Aero Function® 115420 - AF-1 Style Carbon Fiber Hood Vents

A vehicle with a vented hood panel stands out in any crowd of cars and trucks made during the last two decades. Why? Most modern automobiles are designed in a wind tunnel with aerodynamics in mind. Because the hood is one of the parts of the automobile that makes contact with the wind first, most panels tend to be designed exactly the same - in flat, contour-less shapes with the same degree of slope front to back. Consequentially, very rarely do today's automobiles leave the factory with textures or shapes that have any visual interest. And when you do see a vehicle with factory vented grille sections on the hood, it means something. Usually it's because more cylinders, a turbocharger, or a supercharger lurk underneath and need extra ventilation to offset higher heat levels.

When you're ready to increase the visual impact of your vehicle, increase under hood airflow, and reduce under hood temperatures, Aero Function offers functional Hood Vents. Similar to ones found on high performance vehicles and racecars, these hood vents are fitted over cutout sections of your hood panel to allow better flow-through engine ventilation, and mount flush to maintain aerodynamics. The vent pieces are manufactured from advanced polymer composites that result in superior quality fit, durability, and resistance to heat. Once installed, they won't warp, expand or crack the way inferior materials can. Professional body shop installation is recommended for cutting of your hood panel and painting of scoops to match.
