Yea its a bolt on requires no modification to anything. And I don’t think ur dealer would have any issue with that. U can always ask them if u are worried.

I got the zunaport screen from Amazon for $160. Easy install and seems like plenty of protection.

With no support in the middle does this sit flat against the existing plastic guard? I worried about flapping at high speeds. Or hearing any kind of noise over bumps.

The back two screws have longer spacers to keep the oil cooler guard from touching the plastic. You can watch this video to see the installation and the spacers I’m talking about Oil Cooler Guard Install

Thanks, just out of curiosity did you have any rattles or clearance issues wiht the SouthEast C&F plate you both had on before?

Quick question for you all - I got a zunsport mesh, but haven’t installed it yet.

Will installing void any warranty or create any concerns with dealership?

Definitely no issues with the warranty.

You should not have any issues with warranty.
