I certainly wouldn't put it at the level of replacing the IMS and indeed, radiator replacements seem pretty unusual for these cars - even though some are now 17 years old. That being said, it would be nice not to have to remove the bumpers every couple of years to clean out the radiators.

My concern about reduced air flow is not so much at speed (as would occur with cars used in racing), but in stop and go traffic where temperatures seem to rise even without the obstruction of a heavy mesh grill. However, if no one who has installed them has experienced a problem with this, then I guess it is win/win at a low price.

PS And yes Haz, I was being serious - it certainly appears that the spaces between the metal cross pieces is approximately twice the size of the cross pieces themselves.
