Waterfall Grill Add on?
I was wondering if anyone knows why some of the waterfall grills have an extra plastic piece covering the grill?

Re: Waterfall Grill Add on?
I wish I had that talent! If I could mold plastic professionally, I'd concentrate on making new headlight covers out of a non-yellowing plastic and then form all new dash pieces with a more realistic wood grain. I bought this grill a few years back but never unwrapped it... just stored it for a rainy day. Well I took my original lights to be professionally sanded/painted and when I was putting on my spares.. I noticed this grill having this clip-on. It's definitely some factory piece because I realized the grill holes that this plastic clips inside of were intentionally made different to hold it (they are present even on my 93 grill). It just seems like the silliest thing to make because I would think it's restricting airflow to the radiator... so I wonder, when would you need this?

It's to keep mud out of the engine compartment of a rally car, of course.
Now, since the SVX is a rally car, I'm off to go powerslide through some snow!

I'm sure you have seen those covers on some larger trucks in the colder climates.
