Bra's do help alot...however once youve installed it plan on keeping it on forever, they rub the paint off over time where theysinch down, I had one on a 87 Camaro that looked great until I went to remove it one day. At least you can touch up rock chips...if you go with a bra, eventually you need to repaint the front end. And with the Dodges I dont think we have enough paint exposed on the front to make it worth it. Just my opinion.

or, if it's a cold weather grill cover you mean.... there probably really isn't a need for one
unless you're in sub-zero temps. It would help the truck warm up quicker though.

If it's one like Sharx it talking about.... they'll also faded the paint over time and you'll end up with a nautral
bra ;-)

Hell yes a winter front is a good thing to have when its cold out side. Oh and it fit under the hood like the photo I will attach. Its even more imporant when it gets near 15 above zero for nice faster warm up's and. its even nicer when it gets -16 below zero like I saw today at 6:00 AM

i just ordered a mopar one on ebay. It goes over the rad on the inside of the grill and can be adjusted for more or less ventillation.
