I assume, when we call it a "grill blocker" this is specific to the cooling air intake above the bumper. Of course, on most vehicles, there is a larger cooling intake below the bumper(or integrated).

thats what i was thinking, the caliber has a huge grille, grabbing too much unwanted air


what you can't see, is that about 1/3 of the grille is blocked off from the factory, & the lower openings are blocked also besides for the ones right around the tag

i should wait 'till my scangauge arrives, before i try anything
