I noticed that when I replaced my factory grille that nearly half of it was blocked off so that air couldn't pass through. Installing the RS grille actually lets in more air which increases the car's Cd. I wanted to remove the RS grille and completely block of the grille behind the mesh, but it's fit so tightly that I can't remove it without damaging it.
I decided to block off the lower grille under the bumper instead. I did that with a piece of acrylic. I cut the acrylic to size and painted the backside of the acrylic sheet black and installed it behind the mesh. I drove the car on a warm day with the A/C on and the engine temperature stays normal. You can't even tell that the acrylic is there because it's black and behind the mesh so new pictures wouldn't really help to show anything.
Anyways, to the part where I want opinions. My aftermarket foglights are discolored so I now have some OEM foglights to install in their place. I was thinking about doing one of three things:
1) Just install the factory foglights without any modifications
2) Apply tinted overlays to the foglights
3) Apply tinted overlays and also a matching mesh chrome decal (that duplicates the stainless mesh in the grilles)
Here's a pic of the front of the car.
Which of the three options do you think would look best?
I'm leaning toward option one the most, but sometimes think that option three would look fairly neat and unique.
I did something new and need opinions about something else
