Front Bumper Grille / Mesh

Hey,

While my Dad and I were installing the fog lights, he took one look at my rad and a/c condensor and said "You've got to protect that. How much do you think getting either replaced would cost?" So we zap strapped in some mesh to the fins on the inside.
Thinking this might not be the last word, I did a little research...and found three threads here. Given that they throw gravel on the roads in the winter here, and the damage so far it seems especially pertinent.

I'm thinking of getting one of the grilles off e-bay. There doesn't seem to be an OEM one for the lower bumper, and I'm not really interested in the upper one by the honda emblem. Anybody else done this?

Those are great idea's

We've had a few engine replacements due to rocks through the radiator so the risk is there for it to happen more often. We notice it more with the odyssey than with the fit/civic/accord. Some people may say that the airflow is affected but we have had zero complaints of any overheating issues after the grills have been installed.

Cloudrider is the company that I've dealt with in the past, they are both high quality and made in Canada.
