You have a nice flat surround on the outside of your grille to tape to. The coroplast should work for you. When you decide how much grille opening you need, I still would cover the entire grille then cut a crosswise slot an inch or so wide to line up with the centers of your fans. With a narrow slot, it is easy to add to or subtract with tape when needed. After my grille block was duct taped on I masked around the tape real tight and painted the tape and the block at the same time. Looks fairly decent.
Don't wreck your paint job.;) We all gotta start somewhere.
Good Luck. CO ZX2

That's a good idea. I'll take a look at it this weekend....maybe some creative use of the zip ties and duct/electrical tape are in order =P Hopefully we can do some good without causing any heat-related damage.....
And I'll be careful about that paint.....It's still in mint condition, at least until I start going nuts with the Herculiner to help combat the rust.....:D |
