Customers Who Have Bought Our Hood Louvers Say:

"Your hood louvers are absolutely excellent! Install was straight forward, instructions were good, the louvers look great, and the temp of the Jeep XJ has dropped 20 degrees F. And that's on the temp gauge. The under hood temp dropped even more. Very pleased with the service, and responsiveness of your team, and your product." D.H. - Caytonsville, Md.


"They do the job-- they cool it right down!" Jerry L. - Suffolk, Va.
"The heat is now dispersed well and the engine is much cooler. I can now lift the hood prop rod by actually touching it with my hand, without burning myself, unlike before...As we all know 'less heat, less possible component damage.' Thanks for making a top quality product that REALLY works!" M.D. - Conn.
"The Size Large Louvers look good on my Wrangler -- but the best thing is they work well, too!" Justin F. - Mass.

"Followed your instructions to the letter and it worked out PERFECT. Love them. Thanks for the help." Buck S. - Calif.
"I have installed the medium set on my van and I have received great reviews from people who have seen it, and I have noticed that I don't feel the engine heat around my feet like before...I was out in the heat of the desert climbing up a long grade, and without your hood louvers, I KNOW I would have been overheating!" M.F. - Calif.
"I recently installed your hood louvers on my '99 Cavalier. I checked the temp in as normal a condition as I could and found it ran visibly cooler." - J.W.

"Your instructions for installation were awesome, nice job. I painted the vents a matching House of Color Orange Pearl with a base underneath. Used 4 coats of clear coat to make them match the hood. Jeep is a '97, stretched frame, 41" IROKS, Dana 60 axles, Atlas Transfer, Chevy 5.7 V8...I could feel the heat from the vent coming out, and the hood was not hot to the touch anymore." T.W. - Ga.


"The 304 [in the Jeep] puts out a lot of heat and this is a great looking way to get rid of that heat." www.certifiablejeep.com
