it's just for testing, makes it really easy to see if it will get too hot. as promised, here are a few pictures, i may have to add a small opening on the top half once i cover the other side, it started to get a little warm yesterday on my way to work, we'll see. right now i have everything blocked except about 4-5 inches on the lower inlet, i chose the lower to leave open because there is an oil cooler on one side and a trans cooler on the driver side.

I do have a question though, do you think i should add a "louver" at the rear of the rearmost inlet for exhausting air? It looks like that would just allow more air in though.

You can really tell that this bumper cover is almost entirely aesthetic, only about 3-4 inches of the inlet is in front of the radiator.
