Product details

PART DESIGN

Designed in-house using state of the art 3D laser scanning and CAD technology for precision fitment

Made from lightweight, hand-laid epoxy resin pre-impregnated 2×2 twill weave carbon fiber cloth and autoclave cured. Clear coated for excellent finish durability and UV resistance.

Hides the ugly, grey plastic expansion tank

Pre-applied foam tape creates a lasting connection to the expansion tank. 3M foam tape is resistant to the continuous heat in the engine bay and is resistant to chemical degradation.

Incorporated sight-window allows visibility of coolant level with both covers installed

Expansion tank mounting bolts remain accessible, allowing removal of expansion tank while keeping the covers in place

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Our ECS MK8 GTI / Golf R Carbon Fiber Expansion Tank Cover Kit was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team in our Wadsworth, Ohio facility. We strive for the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long term product testing.

INSTALLATION AND SUPPORT

Ensure your OEM expansion tank is clean and free of debris prior to installing self-adhesive foam strips. We recommend wiping the contact surfaces with isopropyl alcohol prior to installation. Reference our General Installation Guide for tips and suggestions.
