Front Grill solid???
i went to take my xb in for the free oil change i get, and i checked out the 2 new RS 2.0's they had there, its all right i dont think i would pay the extra 2 grand for the like 800-1000 bucks work of stuff on it, but anywho i was checking out the grill they put on it and i noticed they blocked out the back of the grill with a solid sheet of metel, and i also noticed that our regular xb grills are solid, as to not let any air pass. does anyone know the purpose of this?? why would you not want air to get into the engine compartment? i tried doing a search but didnt come up with anything that would explain why you would want to make a big air blocking sheet of metel to cover up the grill area

I have an aftermarket grille on mine & it is flow thru at the moment. The engine does get a little more dirt on it but, I have had no cooling issues or performace losses to speak of at the moment.
I may block mine off in the future as well to keep the dirt out !
