Anyone have any ideas how to protect the radiator vanes from bugs and pebbles? I'd like to mount some sort of screen in front of the radiator, yet behind the fans. Even though my car only has a couple hundred miles on it, the number of dings in the radiator seems excessive. I'm afraid to think what it will look like once the car gets a few years and a few thousand miles on it.

Thanks for idea. My fans are in place and oil cooler bracket is riveted to frame, limiting space to slide rigid bracket between fans and radiator. That's the type of detail I look forward to seeing at open house. Hope to see you there. Walter

Brent,
Looks like you sucked up every bug in the area! How many are there on your windshield?

I thought you hit so many bugs that it turned your car blue!:D
It shined up real nice and you can actually see your fans now!;)
