Excessive heat can cause significant and costly damage to critical automotive components. The engine bay, radiator, brakes, transmission, and differential all require good airflow to vent unwanted heat. APR Hood Vents extract the excess heat that accumulates in the engine bay. Constructed using pre-preg carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials for an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, APR Hood Vents add both critical functionality and lightness.
- Carbon fiber construction
- This component is formed in an autoclave at high temperatures using a pre-preg carbon fiber manufacturing process to achieve high strength and light weight.
- UV resistant coating
- Each air duct is finished with a UV-resistant clear coat for durability against various environmental conditions (treat it just like your vehicle's paint finish; polish and coat with a high-quality wax or synthetic protectant).
- ***Direct OEM replacement***
Before Ordering
〇 Regarding import consumption tax
At Shafutoya Shopping Site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇 Confirmation of compatibility
All product databases are based on North American vehicles (USDM), so please check the compatibility with Japanese vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will look into it for you.)
If you order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if items are sorted by selecting the year, make, and model from the tabs on our top page, it does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese models without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding delivery
Shipping costs will be paid at the time of payment. Shipping estimates are automatically calculated when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping cost and the actual shipping cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
Basically, all products are shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping in Japan, international shipping takes about 7 to 14 days, so please place your order with time to spare. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm the delivery date. Note that all products are transported by air; they are never shipped by sea freight.
○ Regarding compliance with Japanese vehicle inspection (Shaken)
The products we handle are basically designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with the "Japanese vehicle inspection system," and we cannot provide structural review documents or similar paperwork for the Japanese inspection system. Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on circuits, private land, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. As all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be damage to the packaging or the product due to shipping. Please understand that we will only provide returns, refunds, or replacement products for items with shipping damage, defective products, or items different from your order if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Please note that for products sold through us, warranty support will be handled "exclusively through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors based in Japan.
