Cool, I'll look into this stuff, as cardboard quickly turns to mush when used as a grille block around here until the real cold comes. Kind of a stealth grille cover is what it'll be. Like saran wrap on the toilet seat.

Extreme cold to me is -40, and we usually get a week of it each year. About 15 years ago we got two weeks of -40 (without windchill!) in a row. I was working outside on an open tractor so I really remember that. Last few years have been very mild where we barely get into the -30's (C) and mostly hang out in the -25 area.

kach22i that BMW GINA Light Visionary Model looks awesome! I love fabric covered aircraft, and the look is captured superbly in that car! Wow!
