Elevate Your C6 Corvette with the Iconic ACS Composite L88 Extractor Hood
Bring a piece of Corvette history to your C6 with the ACS Composite L88 Extractor Hood. Manufactured using state-of-the-art RTM composite material, this hood is lightweight, heat resistant, and strong. The iconic design of the L88 hood provides greater clearance (approximately 1'') than the stock hood for improved performance and aggressive styling.
Benefits:
- A massive single louver on the cowl ensures efficient heat extraction, even during the most intense driving conditions.
- The hood is designed with a water management system that redirects rainwater and debris that enters the louver to the front of the vehicle away from sensitive engine components.
- The L88 Extractor Hood clears most top mount superchargers like the Magnuson TVS, making it the perfect upgrade for performance enthusiasts.
