FRONT END MASKS/SPECIALTY MASKS Custom masks allow hood to open

COVERCRAFT FRONT END MASK APPLICATION GUIDE For maximum protection you can't beat a full front mask.  They cover the bumper area (some truck models do not cover the bumper, to allow for installation of lights, grille guards, etc.) and the leading portion of the hood area. We usually screen radiator openings because we feel it's important to protect the maximum front area possible.  We have done plenty of testing over the years to confirm that the screen does not increase the engine temperature.  There are some applications that just won't allow the use of screening, but not many.  Some applications, like Firebirds and some Corvette models, have the hood opening so far back that a hood piece isn't required.  These unique patterns are noted in our application guide. Protective Air Intake Screens An integral part of the mask, not separate, and they are sewn into the outside of the mask so there are no loose pieces of material inside to abrade the paint surface Covered Aluminum Tabs Allow adjustment at the fender wells as vinyl expands and contracts due to temperature. Take a look at a non-adjustable mask being driven down the road and you'll see why this is an important feature Reinforced Air Foils Prevent flapping and lift. Very few patterns don't require this feature; there is just too much air whipping around the front of your vehicle as it goes down the road, like cross-winds and back drafts from passing semi trucks Micro-Perforated Finish Allows the mask to "breathe" and permits moisture vapor to evaporate when the vehicle is driven in wet weather.  Still, if a mask becomes wet and is going to be left sitting in the sun, we recommend it be removed to allow the backing to dry properly. Soft, Protective Backing We use white non-woven fleece so you can easily see when it's time to clean the back-side of the mask Overlapped Seams Finished with a strong, durable top stitch. Edges are covered with soft, non-abrasive felt-rimmed bindings COVERCRAFT FRONT END MASK APPLICATION GUIDE
