Thank u sir! The same little rocks will get through the stock grill slits as they do w/o it. If you run into large pieces of wood, rubber, animals , etc.. it could be a problem though.

To protect the rad, you could add some universal mesh:

It's not going to be the end all, but it will protect it better than having it completely bare.

The Z without the fangs at least needs to pit a screen in there. It just looks unfinished.

thanks, I think the front bumper needs the fangs as support, plus it looks better w/ them.
