Front grille mesh added

I just thought I share some pix of mesh I added to protect the radiators from rocks and debris.

Inside the fender well because the tires were kicking debris up into the back of the coolers

Interesting. On the side openings, I know the black OEM pieces can easily be removed but how did you do it for the center pieces?
I just installed my 9500CI and it was a b#tch to run the wires and place the detectors behind the grill.
Did you add them because you are seeing damages on your radiator?
Do you track your car?

Looks good but you lost some cooling in square inches and airflow changes

I haven't tracked the car yet. I track motorcycles, it's hard to find anything else comparable to the adrenaline rush of motorcycles. I may track the GTS but I have dedicated track bikes.
