"Avenger" Engine Bonnet — Jeep Wrangler JK 2007+

The bonnet is the most visible panel on a Wrangler and the simplest way to change the vehicle's character without touching the bumpers. The Avenger has a raised centre section and cut-in air vents — more aggressive than the flat factory panel, and the mesh vents give the engine bay an extra path for heat.

The supplier lists it for the Jeep Wrangler JK from the 2007 model year. The part is steel, so it has the mass and stiffness of sheet metal rather than plastic.

Key features

• Steel construction — stiff, with pressed bracing on the underside
• Air vents cut into the top of the bonnet, finished with mesh
• Plastic mesh inserts on the sides of the panel
• Matt black, prepared for painting to body colour

Fitting and notes

The supplier does not say whether the bonnet uses the factory hinges and catches, whether rubber stops, a release cable and latches are included, or whether the vents pass through into the engine bay or are decorative. A steel panel is heavier than the factory one — before fitting, check that the standard struts or prop will hold it open. It comes in matt black, so painting is needed for the finished look.

Frequently asked questions

Is the bonnet ready to fit as delivered?

The supplier states it is prepared for painting. If you want body colour, add the cost of paint.

Do the vents pass through?

The supplier does not specify. The underside photo shows mesh fitted into the cut-outs, but that alone does not confirm they are open — ask the seller.

Are hinges and latches included?

The supplier does not list the contents of the set. Confirm with the seller before buying.
