Description
Bonnet/hood protectors in water-resistant/breathable outdoor mediumweight polyester for Super Beetles model year ’71 on. Each cover is form fitted to your bonnet and is designed to allow rain water to drain through. All fittings included.
We do not recommend leaving this as a permanent fitting to your Beetle. Our protector fabric is deliberately chosen because it is breathable which helps prevent moisture build up. However some damp as well as grit can still occur between the cover and your paintwork, so we do encourage you as part of your regular maintenance to remove it for cleaning. Use a vacuum to clean out any dirt and dust and regular household products, such as baking soda and vinegar with warm water can be used to remove any staining. If necessary use a soft bristle brush .
Do not use the protector if your vehicle’s paint is less than six months old.
