I was going to say that. There are people that use screens, but I wouldn’t trust on on one of my engines. The bumper wont clear the filter where it sits now, correct? Is Alex planning on leaving it there or routing some sort of air intake tube to a spot where it won’t hit the bumper? IMO it really needs to be covered by some sort of shroud at least.
