Where I'm located the bugs aren't really an issue. However if you live where the lovebugs mate that could be a problem. But they'll cover your car regardless whether you do the grill delete or not. lol

Yup, I did the LP upper delete (the lower has the plate mounted overlap so I skipped that).



is that vinyl on the hood from big worm, or where did it come from?

Hey guys just finished mine. To protect bugs and get black look without painting I used custom fitted aluminum to work with factory bolt holes :)

Hmm that looks good but I almost feel like that blocks more air than the stock setup from the IC and rad. Hard to tell though

American Muscle. It's supposed to be longer but I scratched the end taking it out of the cardboard cylinder - from a staple that holds the end cap on. So I had to trim it about 3 inches.

[MENTION=10751]EcoSwag1990[/MENTION] - probably yes but its hard to do a "grille delete" if you leave the stock setup on. also its hard to see on the pics but the holes are actually beveled and there is over 2" of space between it and the intercooler and similarly all the way up. I also kinda wasted some CFD time the other night at work to simulate the effects and it was a 60% increase in CFM from the mesh that I and some others were using. Plus it is massively stronger than any mesh or open configuration
