raised bonnet

[Lodgey180]

has anyone ever raised to rear of a leon bonnet.. you know like the escort rs turbos do and the french guys

it would help with cooling under the bonnet right ??

it does help but its down to if you like it or if it suits the carthen you get a few people saying (Mate your bonnet is open)

I was only thinking of this last week!

In in the end I thought the lines of the leon were a bit to clean to be lifting it up.......although I'm still undecided.

best bet is unbolt it and try.just find some thing a couple of mm thick

You could just remove the rubber seals at the front and back of the bonnet.

Bonnet/wing vents also help, not tried or looked into the bonnet lifting but interested to see what you find out about this

This might be easier than your head light vent Willie

My mate did this on his polo turbo and he said it did help alot with his cooling
