Description
Transform your engine bay with the USP Motorsports Carbon Fiber Engine Cover, designed specifically for the VW MK8 GTI, Golf R (Evo), and compatible Arteon models. This premium engine cover is not just a visual upgrade—it’s a performance-driven, functional replacement for the OEM cover, which has been recalled due to fire risks under high heat. With superior thermal resistance, precision craftsmanship, and a high-gloss finish, it’s built for enthusiasts who demand both aesthetics and reliability.
Constructed using high-quality carbon fiber overlay through USP’s proprietary resin infusion process, this engine cover ensures no color fading or yellowing even in the intense heat of your engine bay. Unlike stick-on trims, this is a full replacement unit—significantly lighter than the stock cover and engineered for a perfect fit on EA888 EVO engines. It’s designed to complement popular carbon fiber intake systems such as the APR CI100033, Racingline R600, and 034Motorsport Carbon Intake, making it the perfect finishing touch to a performance build.
Key Features:
-
Genuine Carbon Fiber Construction – Lightweight, high-strength carbon with premium resin for heat stability and a deep gloss finish.
-
Direct Replacement – Fully replaces the factory engine cover; not a stick-on or overlay.
-
Fire-Resistant Alternative – Replaces the stock silicone engine cover that has been recalled for potential fire risk.

Note: As with all carbon fiber products, slight variations and minor imperfections are normal due to the handmade nature of the process. USP maintains strict quality control standards to ensure only approved units are shipped.
