If you dont think it does just think about it some more... putting a grille or for that matter anything in front of a fan will cause less air to pass through.... same thing with your car thats why there isnt one there in the first place
Every one seems to be concerned with air flow.
First I'd say my grill is the most restrictive, but it is also a neglagable difference when it come to Engine Temp. I realy push my Car hard, and drive it like it's ment to be driven. and I made sure to note the temp. difference, and I've driven over 3000km with the grill and the engine is still running at the same temp.
I'd only be worried about Air flow if I had a ram air scoop in that area. Even then I would doubt it would be any kind of significant differance that you would notice when driveing

I just got mine from autozone. $35 for the grille and $2 for the ties. I would put it on now but i'm under a tornado warning
Pics to come soon!
Oh yea, I may also paint it white. It would match the SS emblem very well, then I would paint the black vents in the back too. What do you all yall think? White mesh or just leave it? (Its a Red SS)

If it works fine then it woprks fine, I'm jsut sayin its common sense you wont get as much air if you put something in the way....
