how's this radiator idea?


Want to get the front back to stock looking and still cool the EJ20TT, here's the idea:

the red lines are the dimension of the rad I have in place now but I want a front apront without the hole and so no visible rad.
the yellow lines are possible dimensions for a bigger radiator but the would mean cutting parts out between the inside of the front apron and the fenders (maybe some form of reinforcement will be needed)

what are you guys thoughts on this setup and has maybe somebody already done this?

maybe if the mesh was a little denser, and was the same colour as the body, would be a little more inconspicuous.

if u gonna cover ur front apron up with the radiator sitting behind, the only idea i could think of is to have some kind of airscoop under the apron that directs air over the radiator.

I'm no pro, but just thought some of this might be some food for though.

it seems like a lot of people have good cooling with their radiators in different positions to this, or with fans, and with a lot less effort. Just my 2c.
