    Thats nice. Never noticed how big the grill holes are on a Gen 3 but maybe just picture. They seem much bigger than
    than a Gen 2.
    Looks good though.

    Good job SFR-DSR-44! There have a been a few complaints here over the years on G3s where an errant pebble or stone killed a condenser coil. I think some kind of grill mesh like yours is a good preventive measure - and for stopping bugs too.

    Something to be said waking up to a completely bruised right arm and feeling satisfied vs. cursing the Toyota designers. :) Thanks for the encouragement everyone.
