Keep Your C5 Cool! ❄️ C7 Carbon Front Cooling Ducts - IN STOCK & READY TO SHIP

Tired of watching your coolant temps climb during spirited drives or track sessions? Our C5 Front Bumper Cooling Duct is the ultimate solution for increased airflow.

By replacing the factory license plate cover and opening up the bumper, this duct feeds fresh air directly to your radiator. It’s a "must-have" for lowered C5s or those running front splitters that can sometimes restrict airflow.

Corvette C5 Front Cooling Duct Upgrade Kit – C7 Carbon
  • Our Carbon Fiber Option is made from 100% Pre-Preg (Dry Carbon Fiber) and heat cycled in our autoclave to yield the strongest, lightest and best finish possible for our cooling ducts!
  • Non carbon fiber units are made from a high quality composite
  • Finish: Our painted options are finished with Automotive UV Clear Coat for a deep, long-lasting gloss.
  • Fitment: OEM-spec flange for a straightforward installation on all 1997–2004 models. (Some slotting is required due to the age of the cars)
We have a limited batch of 20 left in stock at the factory right now. These move fast!

Is the price the "forum" member special price it shows 5% off currently? Does this cause a build up of pressure in the engine bay since there isnt a relief of said air coming into the engine bay?

it doesn't cause a air buildup but it does help maintain the cooling system at a lower temperature, for the special offer you can give us a call at (800)619-0706

“Allows you to cut open the front bumper”. So is there any on line pics, instructions, templates or other info about what is being suggested here?

Hello
You don't actually need to cut the bumper. The modification involves increasing airflow to the cooling system by simply removing the front license plate cover and replacing it with a specialized air-intake duct

Umm, that's wrong information.

I don't know what else to say, just wrong.

I'm more interested in your front bumper cover.... Big improvement over stock. Is that only available as part of your wide body kit?
