Well, I have actually discovered the car is running warmer than usual and my test with the scanner was not effective enough for real results. I had some errands in town and when coming to the next light, I heard my fan come on and thought "That's strange" because usually it will take a minute of idling before the fan kicks on.

Looks like I will have to cut out a section of the grill block and open up the hole directly in front of the radiator and right above the driver's side turn signal lamp. I should of went with my other idea...............

I may have to come up with something different because cutting my original design structure will hinder strength and rigidness of the material. Maybe I shall make a complete frontal external block from my special aeromodding material, cut 2 oval shaped holes to fit the grommets of the original lamps I had installed and a slot opening for the radiator? The light would then be flush with the block and the entire front of the car minus the freakin' Ohio plate will be smooth. This should net some results, but in effect also become a permanent part of the car since I will have to screw the material directly to the existing bumper.

I did not want to stray from keeping the original look of the car while aeromodding, but with a bumper like this, I have no other choice at the moment.
