I've mentioned it a few times, but yeah it is that time of year (since this picture was taken, I've painted it black.
Scored 2 sheets of 3x2 a couple of days ago actually. The sign had blown over in a storm that we had so I figured that I would "recycle" it. Plan to do a front grill block as soon as I can loosen / break the screws holding the front bumper on. Just an excuse to buy a pair of Vise-Grips
These were common on pre 1980s European spec cars, but with modern thermostats, you do not need them. It is better for you FE to run warm, yes, but do that with a proper thermostat Vs. these, or what my friends in Ohio called "West Virgina Thermostats".
I think they are more for aerodynamic improvement, but they also help the car reach operating temp faster.
Oh, and I have been eyeing a few signs, too. Most of them are not coroplast, but there are a few that are. I've been trying to figure out how to haul the big ones home...
Not too practical in very hot summer conditions when you need a lot of cooling , but in cooler months and winter it can be used to pick up a few MPG.
But beware that if you must do heavy city driving even in winter that your temps may still rise too high with a full grill block. , so a partial block would be better suited.
Its all expermentation to see whats a good compromise for your car and your driving.
