Why don't you have a screen up to protect your IC from debri?

you definitely need to duct that ----. I think they covered it, so I won't say much. If you want, I am using coroplast to do my front ducting and I can send you 48x24 sheet (you pay shipping though), although you can do it with practically anything.

LOL, I'm surprised that's all the damage a coon did! I worry about hitting anything bigger than a field mouse with mine.

that just blocks airflow and doesn't protect anything.


yeah, you need to seal up your mouth like WHOA! You have like nothing creating a pressure differential...honestly, I'd replace the front bumper.
