Grille Options?
I love my R3 bumper and was wondering if anyone has ever seen a mesh type grille option for the middle portion? I'm not entirely fond of the giant plastic honeycomb that goes across. It only has two small areas open for airflow.
|
Where are you trying to get airflow to? If the car is stock, there is nothing to gain by adding a tacky mesh grill.
|
Not really performance, just looks.
Was a thought I had. |
I was on road when I replied; I just wondered if there was any benefit to more airflow in that area because as I was looking at front of my R3 I noticed that there are two small areas of that grill that are actually open; rest is just plastic on front.
|
This is something I'm going to attempt to do this winter,with some nice 3/8" stainless steel weaved mesh.
|
Let me know how it turns out -- the only concern I have is how our plastic grill comes to a point.
|
Directly behind the solid part is the crash bar.
Nothing to be gained by replacing it with mesh apart from looking like a ricer |

Thanks for the info -- if that's the case than I'm OK. I was was worried about cooling too because this is a track car for next year and just wanted to maximize any cooling potentials.

It wont do anything to help with cooling

Thanks Slidin8.

OMG no that looks terrible,I go back to stock if I couldn't do a better job than that.
His under tray needs a little help also. |
I believe that was by design.

If pockets are deep, there's always the Re amemiya Grill...

Pockets are always deep because there's not enough $$$$ to fill them
