Cool Louvres

[stewy clio turbo]

Not sure if this is in the right place but has anyone ever used them for bonnet mods/moulds?? Is there work any good?? I need some louvres pressin into me bonnet to help get the under bonnet temps down. Im not after any scoops coz im not into them. Or is there any other places that do stuff like that

Any advise or pics of their work would be appreciated.

cheers folks

[Serg]

what about some vents in the style of the new mk3 sport?

 

[stewy clio turbo]

cant think of what they look like mate, i'll hav a butchers on google. or you got any pics to hand mate??

 

[Djw Dave]

I was thinking about them too, you do need to get your bonnet repainted fully dont you. (probably a dumb ass question)

My mate had his saxo done by cool louvres and it turned out reall nicely, he paint is staring to crack around where they welded a plate in the front, but i think thats where he slams it. lol. but he recomends them highly if thats any help

 

[gadlys]

I used them a few years ago, had some louvres punched into the bonnet. They punch them directly into the metal so theres no problems with filler cracking or anything like that. I would use them again for louvres as think they look good.

Thing is tho with the louvres its basically gona let the rain through init, suppose id have to make some sort off drip tray kind thing so the water can run off instead off soakin my electrics an my lovely coloured hoses.

think ill give them a bell in the mornin to see what they can do.

thanks for the replies folks

Had mine done,came out really well and cant fault it.
You book it in and take the panel down there,wait a few hrs and come back with a freshly stamped panel

 

[stewy clio turbo]

^^^^ shortie, that looks well done, problem for me tho is, im about a 4-5 hour drive away from them so drivin down is kinda a problem (basically i cant be arsed) so ill have to post mine down there. i no they can supply bonnets but there just copies and afew peeps have said they dont fit to well

do you find it lets much rain into the bay??

 

[chadhele]
