I did some DIY grille screens. A 6speed member started this thread a while back and this is what I did. I actually zip tied my two outer grille screens on so I can easily remove them and do a cleanout.

Not difficult to do and very inexpensive.

Yes, you have to remove the bumper to install them.

If you don't do this as maintenance you will have to remove the bumper to remove the junk to stop the car from over heating.
Could you please advise as to where you got the flexible plastic pipe/tubing? This is a very good idea, by the way!

Thanks.

I purchased my flex tubing @ Lowe's about a year ago. They also sell it @ Home Depot. The large flex tubing is great for cleaning on either side of your front seats.

Thanks.

I got it at Ace Hardware or Home Depot many years ago. It was sold by the foot. I used 1" OD x 3/4" ID.
