Universal Aluminum EZ-Install Hood/Fender Louvers 5.5"x12" Angled Pair

Description

Drastically lower under-hood temps, reduce under-hood pressure/lift, reduce wheel well pressure, increase downforce with these custom EZ-Install hood/fender louvers from VRaptor SpeedWorks, LLC.  This auction is for one pair of 5.5"x12" Angled Hood/Fender Louvers.  Made from aluminum, this louver pair comes with a mirrored pair (LH and RH) of louvered panels with louver braces.  The louvers are 5.5" wide and 12" long as measured down the center.  Please note that these louvers are bare aluminum (not painted or powdercoated) and ship flat and do require some assembly.  While the louvers are flat, use them as your cut template to mark the cut opening in your hood/fender.  This design allows you to use the louvers to mark out the cut on your hood using the inner part of the perimeter, cut the hole slightly oversized from your marks and the perimeter of the louvers will hide the cut edge of the hood.....so you can install these on a painted hood without having to repaint the hood when done.  These louvers also come with a mounting brace that holds each louver blade to the proper angle and reinforces the panel, providing additional rigidity.  These can be installed with screws or rivets (not included).
The first Gallery photo is what you are buying.  Other photos are close-up example photos of what the louvers look like and how they are constructed as well as tips for installation.
1.  Use the flat louvered panel as you template to trace the inner part of the perimeter. (see photo)
2.  Make your cut line slightly larger than the inner perimeter. (see photo)
3.  Cut your holes. (see photo)
4.  Use the slots in the braces as a guide to form your louvers to the correct angle. (see photo)
5.  Install your louvers.  I would recommend using 1/8" aluminum rivets for a clean look.
