Ordered mine!

 

What color is your car and the screen choice. We went with black

 

White with black screens

 

Silver with black screens

 

Sounds like black will be the color of choice. I think preserving that black hole effect on the front is important as well

 

Will these screens fit in front of the horizontal slats that are currently in place, or do they replace them?

The horizontial slats that are in the upper area by the trunk are not involved in these screens as this is an exaust point not intake. The screens themselves cover the three radiators inlet areas and are cut around the small horizontial piece located in the left and right radiator intake. Hope this answers you question of not PM me

 

The car I'm getting has slats behind the openings like on this pic I found doing a google image search. Those are the ones I'm taking about. They're pretty widely spaced, I think the mesh grilles would offer better protection. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3261/...2299ae.jpg?v=0

Would I have to remove the slats?

Thanks,

Yes when you pull the bumper to do the screen install these would be pulled. The ones you have are very attractive and would be a good thing to keep but from a track standpoint they are of very limited benefit kind of style over substance

 

Am I missing something? When I looked at the PDF on Rennline's site, it looked as if these screens would go "behind" the horizontal slats (as in the Turbo):


Apologies if I'm misunderstanding the discussion, or the real answer.

 

Its fairly clear there is a lot more screen there than stock, will keep rocks and bugs out... but will also reduce air flow to the rads by a descent percent. What will be the trade off in cooling to the three rads with the screens now restricting air flow?

Remember 10-20deg change is a lot for the engine but that change wont show readily on the gauge. Somebody with a logger should log temps with them off and on. It's not IF there is a difference in cooling, its WHAT IS the difference in cooling effect... Less air flow = hotter temps and the screens will definitely do that, question is... how much?
