About Cowl Top Panels

Certain  car  parts  exist  to  protect  the  vehicle  against  damage  from  external  sources.  An  important component  to  protect  the  engine  and  other  mechanical  parts  under  the  bonnet  is  the  Alfa Romeo  cowl  top  panel.  Items  of  debris  such  as leaves,  dirt  and  twigs  can cause  considerable  damage  to  these  expensive  parts  and  the  cowl  top  panel  provides  an  invaluable  shield.

The    Alfa Romeo  cowl  top  panel  is  situated  at  the  base  of  the  windscreen,  close  to  where  the  windscreen  wipers  are  attached  to  the  car.  It  is  generally  made  from  plastic  and  has  grilles  to  permit  ventilation  but  keep  unwanted  debris  out.

If  a   Alfa Romeo  cowl  top  panel  is  damaged  it  loses  its  effectiveness  as  a  shield  and  will  need  to  be  replaced.  Fortunately,  most  motor  accessory  dealers  stock  replacement  cowl  top panels  for  all popular models of motor vehicle.

A  replacement   Alfa Romeo  cowl  top  panel  is  an  inexpensive  accessory  which  is  also  easy to  fit.  In  light  of  the  significant  damage  that  can  be  done  to  the  important  equipment  that  is  housed  beneath  the  bonnet  of  a  car  through  having  a  defective    Alfa Romeo  cowl  top  panel,  it  is sensible  to  keep  a  check  on  its  condition  and,  in  the  event  of  any  problem,  to  immediately  seek  a replacement part.

Alfa Romeo trivia

• In 1933, the Italian government ‘acquired’ Alfa Romeo, and they kept their hold on it until 1986. That’s when Fiat bought the company and the government had no choice but to let it go.
• One of the most famous onscreen appearances of an Alfa Romeo was in the James Bond film Octopussy when the superspy stole a graphite GTV6. The car brand shows up again in Quantum of Solace, racing against Bond’s Aston Martin.
• The Alfa Romeo logo has some really weird imagery. There are dashes of the Milanese coat of arms, and a terrifying picture of a snake eating a man. That image comes from the Visconti family crest, who used to rule Milan.
• Due to tax shenanigans, the very first Alfa-branded car was named the 24HP, even though it came with a 25 horsepower 4.1-litre engine. It was quick and could do a satisfying 62mph, despite having wooden spoke wheels.
• In the 1960s, Alfa Romeo shifted their designs and started manufacturing a line of more luxurious models. One of the most popular was the Alfa Romeo 2600, one of which was even owned by the Pope.
