The new screens...
dporto-I had a lot of debris between the elements on both sides (including muddauber nests) and along the bottom. The car I just did the screens for is a recent purchase and the cleaning made the car very happy.

I also installed a center radiator last winter - overall temps are exactly the same except when driving over 65mph, where they seem to drop around 10 degrees or so (middle of the 8 in 180)...
When you installed your center radiator, did you put the exit air flow grill on the top of your front bumper cover?
I have been considering the center radiator, but it doesn't make sense to me if you have the air inlet center snorkel going to front of radiator without somewhere for it to free flow out the back.
