Well so far so good today, after 25 miles to work. Absolutely no difference in the temperature gauge. However for the first leg of the trip (very hilly roads mostly north) I noticed a metallic whistling that Id never heard before, when I would get over 35 or 40. However it went away on the second leg of the trip (nearly flat highway mostly west). It is still fastened down well, so maybe it was something to do with the wind direction and how it was hitting the new grille.

Wont know mpg yet at least for a few days.
