Can I cover my grill with a flag?

You do realize that in 30 days that flag is going to look like crud, right?

 

Anything solid will restrict the air flow too much and cause premature fan hub failure, winter fronts have holes for this reason. They make mesh bug screens with all sorts of designs on them and can even have custom made. I’d go that route.

 

There’s probably a tax for that in California.

 

We will fly our flag and sing the praises of our cause!

And, we will give much thought and consideration and proceed with a dutiful conscience!

And, we will endeavor to persevere through the trials and tribulations and turbulent winds of our travels!

And, when victory is ours, we will celebrate in triumphant jubilation with a Moon Pie in one hand and a Diet Dr. Pepper in the other!

 

since its on your dime have the flag painted on your grill. No air restrictions and more durable.

 

DIET!?? No Kentuckians for you!

 

They do make bug screen covers for most trucks, old glory code is passenger front though for mounting

 

Restriction is not good on today's engines. They are running air to air coolers coming from the turbo in front of the engine radiator. That cooler takes probably 400 degree compressed air and lowers it to incoming ambient. One reason today's engines are putting out the power, even with emissions. Use to be, they either had no cooler, or it went threw an intercooler/aftercooler, that only lowered it to engine temperature.

Also, with those 2 heat exchangers, is also the ac condenser and evaporator.

A lot of heat being removed with that frontal air. I would not put anything up there.

 

If you mean an actual American flag, the answer is no, you will cause your truck to overheat. They make front bug mesh screens that have an American Flag on them.

 

Just because I like to have fun with these.

What is the difference between an air to air and an intercooler/aftercooler?
