I purchased a replacement shield for the bottom of the radiator core support, but because I haven’t had one in many years I’m not sure how to properly install it. It’s the little flimsy plastic one. I always wondered if it’s just there for protection or if it impacts the aerodynamics as well. Can someone post a picture of how it’s supposed to attach?
There doesn't appear to be any other way to attach this piece, considering how the protection piece bends around the center support. While it may have some aerodynamic effect, to me it looks like a flap that will let you know when you are getting dangerously close to the vital engine components, like when hovering over the curb at the parking lot, you will be notified by a scraping sound of this shield instead of the oil drips from the pan or the sound of a subframe on that curb..
Mine got snapped off as well, I got the car like that.. Considering the price though, I might as well get it also.
