Few of the "easy" mods have a large impact on fuel economy. They each contribute a couple of percent here & there. It's when you put them all together that you start to see a difference at the pump.

One mirror: maybe a 1 or 1.5% difference. (Very rough estimate.)

Grille block: maybe a 2-4% difference.
