My grille blocks stay on year round but I monitor engine temp with an UltraGauge...
Got several mods planned that'll cost under $40 in all, and should pay for themselves after ~5000. I may start an actual build thread when I begin them.

Hopefully I can get a bluetooth adapter hooked up soon so I can connect a phone to it and monitor temps and stats that way.

Going for mods that can be reversed easily back to stock appearance with no drilling, taping, gluing etc. And using the cheapest materials possible.
