I find it very helpful at high speed. Having the tape is really just temporary solution. I plan on doing this grill block with plastic and fiberglass and finished smooth with bondo. I am still testing out a few different styles before I settle on one to do permanently. Afterwards I will be painting red (maybe black in some areas) to match to make it blend in as much as possible and not be an eyesore.

I really like what speedycorky did with his 2000 HX front end. I just wish the 96-98 was as easy to block off as the 99-00…
