LB lower grille screen, low budget variety

Repost (unfortunately) of the lower grille screen. Since the original post has gone to internet heaven, I can say after 6000 miles with this, no more dented lower condenser. Next time I pop the nose cone off I am going to revise the design slightly as pine needles tend to get lodged in between the stock plastic grille thing and the plastic mesh. Otherwise, working as intended. Yeah it's low budget but there is some bizarre flying road debris down here.

The only thing I can't tell is how much, if any, it restricts airflow.

You know ... I'm starting to feel like all I ever do is play catch-up to all of KL's mods.

That, or great minds have similar taste ;)

Yeah but yours is easier to maintain. If something unusual lands...I found a toothpick, a cheeze doodle, 3 leaves and something that looks like a bad hair weave I had to tweezer out of the mesh. If it's in the front it's easier to remove. Otherwise have to pop the nosecone for cleaning. Strangest road debris in the Southeast, collect them all.

For the record, the cheese doodle was stale.

hahahahaha. I always get LARGE moths splattered on it. You're right, I never realized it, but it is quite easy to clean.

But yeah, you get some odd things stuck there
