Leaves get past Zunsport Grills

dvchemmy · Yesterday, 10:10 PM

Does anyone have a clue how leaves get past Zunsport grills? I have the full package of covers on the front facing grill sections as well as the oil cooler protection underneath. I've got several leaves in the center radiator section as well as both of the outside coolers - not bits of leaves, but full leaves. I look under the car and around the surfaces on the grill where it mates to the Zunsport protection grills, and can't figure out how they got in there. Anyone got any ideas?

Maybe need to drive faster so they disintegrate...LOL

I appreciate the recommendation of pics, but really there is nothing to snap a picture of. There are leaves between the grills and the radiators. Why they are there if the grills are tight and there doesn't seem to be any way in there is a mystery to me.

We needs pics to diagnose.

Probably entering via the kidney grilles and dropping down between the back of the bumper and the radiator.

I have the very occasional leaf in the side grill. Easily removed. If this is the worst issue you have- then you are ok. Zunsport is good protection.
