Its a 2007 Mazda B2300 pickup. I hear you that the top grille would likely be better to block to direct air over instead of under ( especially with it being a truck), but unless the block could go behind the grille it would probably look better to block the bottom one. So it leads back to my question above--can the block go behind the grille? Does a "stagnant air bubble develop" that helps?
