Default Does any company make front grille inserts to replace the stock plastic fins??

Just was curious if any company made a mesh type or speed grille type
that replaces the stock 2 plastic fins on the outer portion of the front bumper along with the center of bumper .
Or do they only make ones that go behind the factory plastic fins?

There are several posts on different boards by members who have lost a rad because they didn't have the grills. I found out the hard way....but have not looked back since installing them.

Tomorrow I am gonna drop my car off to the body shop. If my front bumper is ok I will get the inserts , if it needs replacing I will do a bumper swap.

Does anyone know this company ?

Wow, I'm impressed order went in Monday after they were closed for the day and just had the parts show up. That is some really prompt delivery for being out of the county.
Haha now I just gotta hope I ordered the right one.

This sounds like a good idea. I know my 4S started overheating the last summer I owned it and it turned out it was because the intakes were all clogged up with leaves and whatnot.
