Not sure it it'll stick to the fenders well enough you won't need tape, but if you have problems, that clear packing tape (like 2"wide "Scotch" tape) might not stand out too much, being semi-invisible.

Just be sure to keep a close eye on your temp gauge to make sure enough air is going through your radiator.
Thanks, I will. That's why I want to try this. If the temp starts creeping up when the weather gets hot I can just peel it off. I would hate to have glue from the tape stick to the paint. I guess it would come of with mineral spirits.
The paint is 14 years old anyway so who cares.
