Tomb Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Can anyone tell me what is covering the top grill on the near side of the facelift engine bay, it looks like foam sound proofing but covers the same side as the air box? Directly Infront of the air box but appears to block not filter air flow. Thanks In advance for any responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomb Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 That is what I thought, I don't get why the air flow would be blocked, am looking at customising this a bit, may filter it though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1280 Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 I've always thought that as well, must be restricting airflow!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaungt4 Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Don't it have a slot cut in it the same as the grill opening on the facelift to direct the air flow direct to the rad. with out it the air would just turbulate inside the cone of the bumper My theory anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomb Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 I am wondering what is going on now, it is not on either of yours, will try and get a photo before a streamline it Don't it have a slot cut in it the same as the grill opening on the facelift to direct the air flow direct to the rad. with out it the air would just turbulate inside the cone of the bumper My theory anyway. I agree but mine doesn't have a slot, the top grill directly in front of the standard air box has solid foam in front, of well it will have very soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaff Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Strange... Only the air box side is blanked out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
