water in the intake?

If I remove my grill insert, just the part held on by the 4 clips. Am I going to have a problem with water getting into my stock intake tube when it rains or anything? Am I going to have any problems anyone can think of?

I'm going to be leaving the chrome surround. Just removing the insert so you can see the aux. fans.

Ill explain why I'm doing it a week or so.

Well of course your going to get water in there when it rains. I doubt it will be a significant amount. But yes.

Why not wait a week till w./e project you have is done??

I'm thinking of making a new grill. But I'm thinking it might compromise some safety things. Like water in the intake. The new grill will have a lot less surface area. But, I think I have an idea that might work.
