As with numerous other members here and nonmember a rock went through the massive front grill openings and destroyed by condenser (I realized that when I turned on the air conditioning for the first time this season and the car was blowing boiling hot air).

The dealer was kind enough to replace my condenser under warranty but said it would not be able to do so again. So I ended up getting black mesh grill coverings installed on the front grills. Here are the pictures:

While I was there I had the annual service, oil change and brake flush done. Replaced OEM brake fluid with Castrol SRF racing brake fluid. Brake pads were still really good (8 mm on front and 10 mm in front). And the Pilot Super Sports still had 5 mm of tread left.

Now car is rally ready for the Corsa America Dragon 1100 rally and the Cannonball Run Rally this year.

Not sure. It looks like it

]Decided since it is in for service to change spark plugs too. Car has 13k miles on it and I have been told that life expectancy with a tune is 10-15k miles. Using OEM plugs.

Who made your screens? I like the design and I also have the PAS eye.

I don't know who made the grill. They were installed by sound waves in parsippany New Jersey.

They are significantly better looking than the Rennline grills IMHO

Agree

There are plenty of sources out there to glean the material...wish I had just made my own..

I recently did the same thing. Bought the grill screens from Rennline. (no affiliation)
