Default Vararam install

Do you cut out or take out the fine screen at the lower bumper opening?

I'm not familiar with any C6's that have a "fine screen" anywhere near the front grill opening.

Did you purchase a used car that came with a Racemesh style grill, like this?



If so, I would be comfortable running the grill in front of the Vararam. I don't believe it would obstruct airflow enough to create any adverse affects.

Default mesh

It interferes with the lower opening of the Vararam (as i can not get it in to position) It velcros to the lower valance

Interesting. I installed a Vararam in mine, and never needed to do so. Perhaps you can post a picture? What year is your car?

Default Vararam

Mine is an 06 built real late (june). Initial results after install, it has more snap in second and up. Just feels more responsive.
