Corvette C7 Cowl Vented Extractor Hood

Product Overview

Transform the front-end appearance and heat-management styling of your 2014–2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 with this ZR1 Style Vented Engine Hood Replacement, designed to bring the aggressive high-cowl, multi-vent profile of the C7 ZR1 to Stingray, Z51, Grand Sport, and Z06 models. This full replacement hood is available in Primed Black Aluminum or Carbon Fiber, allowing you to choose between a paint-ready lightweight metal panel or a premium exposed-carbon performance look.

Compatibility: Fits 2014–2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 models, including Stingray, Z51, Grand Sport, and Z06.

The Primed Black Aluminum option is manufactured from stamped automotive-grade aluminum with a reinforced inner structure for strength and rigidity. It arrives in a smooth paint-ready finish intended for professional body-shop preparation, priming, and color matching to your Corvette’s factory paint code.

For enthusiasts looking for a more aggressive and premium appearance, the Carbon Fiber option delivers an exposed-carbon finish that highlights the sculpted ZR1-inspired hood profile and vent design. The carbon fiber version is ideal for builds featuring additional carbon fiber exterior components such as front splitters, side skirts, rear spoilers, mirror covers, and diffusers.

The hood features the signature ZR1 Style high-cowl profile and tiered heat extractor vents, creating a much more aggressive front-end silhouette while also providing functional openings that help vent hot air from the engine compartment. The multi-tiered louver design visually separates the hood from standard Stingray, Grand Sport, and Z06 panels and gives the C7 a more track-oriented appearance.

Designed around the factory body contours of the 2014–2019 Corvette C7, the hood follows the original fender, headlight, bumper, hinge, and latch geometry for a vehicle-specific fit. Reinforced hinge and latch mounting provisions allow the necessary factory hardware to be transferred during installation.

Because this is a complete replacement engine hood, it replaces the original factory panel rather than installing as an overlay. Whether you choose the Primed Black Aluminum version for professional paint matching or the Carbon Fiber version for an exposed performance finish, this C7 ZR1 Style hood provides a major front-end transformation while retaining factory-style mounting locations.

Installation

This ZR1 Style Vented Engine Hood is designed as a direct replacement for the original factory hood on compatible 2014–2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 models.

Before painting or final installation, carefully test-fit the hood to verify alignment with the fenders, headlights, front bumper fascia, windshield edge, and latch location.

For the Primed Black Aluminum option, professional body-shop preparation is recommended before paint. Depending on the final surface condition and paint system, additional sanding, priming, sealing, and color matching may be required.

For the Carbon Fiber option, inspect the hood surface and fitment before final installation and confirm alignment around all body-panel gaps.

Transfer the applicable factory components from the original hood, including the hood latch striker, safety catch, gas struts, and related mounting hardware.

Secure the replacement hood to the factory hinges and carefully adjust the panel position before final tightening.

Confirm that the hood opens, closes, and latches securely before operating the vehicle.

Installation manual is not included. Professional body-shop installation is highly recommended.

Re-use the original factory hood hinge bolts, struts, and latch hardware unless otherwise specified.
