A while back I read something about an insert for a C5 front license plate area that contained a screen. Basically to install it you would cut out the back area that the front plate had and insert the part which allowed more air to pass through to your IC. The ss screen kept the crud out. The insert came in black and you had to paint to match color of car but I like idea as in looking at my set up from A & A, this would give me alot more air right on the IC. Problem is I can't find what parts book I recently seen it in.
Anyone seen same part anywhere?

Default Thanks

That was what I was looking for I also liked the way Ls6 installed it...thanks for the pics. You cut out just enough to get air flow but left room if a license plate was ever needed in front.

How do you like it? Also is the silver I see in your pic that has just the hole cut in it a bottom screen you have to keep crud from coming up into the IC and radiator??
