Jake - doesn't this one have the non-S bumper as well? OP - that third radiator might be blocked...in that GA heat, be interesting to see how well the engine temp manages. Sorry to be the bearer of this news if you were no already aware.

Yes this is the one with the bad bumper, when I asked the owner back when looking at this car, his responses was that the last guy preferred it that way. Still a nice car OP I just really hope you did not pay his asking price for a salvage title car.

I wasn't aware of the salvage title, didn't look close enough, or the wrong bumper cover. I didn't pay full price and still think I got a decent deal. The car runs great, tracks straight and doesn't run hot. However, I'm considering cutting a center vent and covering it with some screening.
