Default Rennline radiator screens - centre one a must have?

the side pods look to be the main problem, the centre rad looks okay to maintain - how mandatory is the centre screen?

Filters don't interfere with air flow- protects both my radiators and condensers Blow it clean with compressor, wash or replace for a few bucks.

Awesome. Will definitely do that for the center.. maybe even in front of the rennline screens too. it will save me a an hour or two of OCD rad fin straightening ...

in front of Redline screens I'm not sure. I have no screens. I just tape leading edge of filter and it lays directly over radiator. I piece does both sides and front. I fear some restriction if filter and screen. and no way to secure easily. If you have screen just protect condenser and over time compare
