The powder coated aluminium construction and high-spec 3M VHB bonding tape are chosen for engine bay environments. On a properly cleaned surface the panel stays put and looks great mile after mile.

FAQs

Will it affect intake temps?
No. The S55’s water-to-air system is not dependent on airflow over this top area, so the panel does not impact effectiveness.

Does the adhesive cope with engine bay heat?
Yes. The included 3M VHB tape is specified for high temperature environments and provides a strong, lasting bond on a properly prepared surface.
