A far easier, WAY less expensive and ( some would say wiser ) choice would be to just fill in the grille with insulation tubing.
It looks factory, is easily removable, and will only cost you around ten bucks or so.
As far as the opening in the bumper, you could rig up some sort of temporary block using aluminum sheet metal. You could paint it flat black and it would look factory.
If you place it behind the struts in the opening, this would hold it in place so you wouldn't have to drill into the car ( I'm thinking resale value here ).
You have a very nice, new car. I would hate to see you screw it up like I did with my old car.
( My resale value was so low from the start that I thought 'What the hell - if I screw it up, who cares " )
One more thing : You'll need some sort of hole in this block for the radiator.
Great to see you're taking to Photoshop. Look forward to seeing more of your stuff ! |
I was thinking about keeping the Rolling Lemon until it finally bit the dust, many miles in the future. I mean, I've already replaced all the important stuff (engine, clutch, entire a/c/defrost system), so it would behoove me to keep the car until it gave up the ghost
. As to the ease of removal, that's probably a good thing. I don't know how well the car is going to perform with a complete full frontal block (New term: FFB).
Anyone with a 1ZZFE engine have the cooling fans turn on at 207*F coolant temperature? I'm thinking about changing the coolant this summer and if I do, I may change the high temp point to turn the radiator fans on at a higher temp, 215*-220*F.
