The Verus Engineering Hood Louver Kit helps reduce engine bay heat and pressure. By improving the flow out of the engine bay, the louvers are able to improve airflow through the radiator and charge air cooler; achieving better cooling stack efficiency. By reducing the pressure buildup in the engine bay, the louvers reduce front end lift, creating a slight bump in front end downforce.
During the design process; we utilized scan data as well as CFD to place louvers that flowed well with the hood's contours, retain most of the underhood structural metal, and place the units in a low-pressure location on the hood.
This hood louver kit is for the MK7 Golf R/GTI owner looking for a purposely placed, built, and tested louver kit that improves the cooling and aerodynamic performance of the Golf.

Our comprehensive approach to design, rigorous testing, and meticulous manufacturing process ensures that every performance part remains to the highest standard. We start with designs using state-of-the-art methods that are validated and tested under the most rigorous track conditions to guarantee durability and longevity.
When purchasing from Verus, you're not just buying a car part but investing in a meticulously designed product crafted to elevate your vehicle's performance to the next level.
Our Tools Of The Trade
We can provide the best aftermarket car parts because we understand your vehicle's systems and what impacts performance. We are well-versed in:
? Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
? Finite element analysis (FEA)
? Heat transfer
? Thermodynamics
By understanding these principles, we can create aftermarket parts that outperform factory components and the competition. We get exceptional results by using the following tools of the trade:
Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
We can bring nearly anything to life thanks to our expertise in various design techniques. This
includes sheet metal, simple 3D designs, and surfacing techniques. We can then apply our designs using a variety of manufacturing methods such as:
? Sheet metal components
? Machined components
? Plastic-injected components
? Plastic blow-molded parts
? Vacuum Formed Components
? Cast components (various materials)
? Forged components
? Composites
? And More
Reverse Engineering
We utilize reverse engineering daily to create our own components and those requested by
customers. Verus can help you design, improve, and manufacture any idea or component you
have in mind. We have extensive experience in all vehicle systems and craft components used
in:
? Engines
? Heat exchanging
? Suspensions
? Drivelines
? Aerodynamics
We can help with nearly any project!
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
CFD is our forte and a useful processing technique for any situation where a fluid (air, water, oil,
coolant) is flowing. We can test both internal and external flow and various fluids. For internal
applications, this can help us increase heat rejection and decrease pressure drop in heat
exchange applications. CFD can also be used to find possible bottlenecks and aid in the design
of manifolds. Externally, we can predict how components impact a vehicle's lift (downforce),
drag, and aerodynamic balance.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
FEA allows us to test complex shapes and loads on components that would otherwise be very
difficult to estimate through hand calculations. Components can be made lighter and stronger
through multiple design iterations than their OEM counterparts. This process is a potent and
helpful tool when in the right hands. We have significant experience using FEA to improve
suspension components and aerodynamic, load-carrying components, but this can be expanded
to other projects.
3D Scanning
A highly accurate 3D scanner improves reverse engineering and design engineering
capabilities. We can easily scan most objects, which greatly helps the engineering process. In
addition, the portability of hand-held scanners allows us to scan items both large and small all
over the country depending on the project at hand.
