Cooling Panels
Cooling Panels
Cooling panels, also called radiator cooling plates or shrouds, cover the area across the front of the radiator support behind the bumper and grille. Each one is shaped for a specific chassis. They are designed to help direct incoming air towards the radiator and to give the front of the engine bay a cleaner finish. This range includes carbon fibre cooling plates from APR Performance and Seibon and radiator cooling plates from Got It Rex (GIR). It sits within our wider Cooling category.
