Now that I've been driving the car like this for a few months you are certainly right. I should have covered the entire grill. My Coolant Temps rarely ever got over 200F with Outside Air Temp ranging from 65-75F. This morning it was -4F and on my drive to work the Coolant Temp only got up to approximately 175F. I even let the car warm up for a while to defrost the windshield. I'm thinking I may make a small Lexan Piece to put over the small Radiator Opening that way it's easy to remove if for any reason higher summer temps start creating an overheating issue.

Now that I look more closely I'm glad i stopped in. Thats the perfect material to use for my lower grill block on my Prius. I love that material for mirror caps. I've used it on my Prius and civic and it gives a fantastic finish.
