ABSTRACT:
A structure for protecting front surfaces of moving vehicles from insects and debris and modulating air flow through the vehicle radiator to control cooling efficiency, including an air deflector mounted on the leading edge of the vehicle to deflect air, airborne insects and debris upward and over the windshield, and, a detachable cover depending from the deflector to preclude insects and debris from entering the radiator, the detachable cover being either a non-perforated curtain to limit and control air flow through the vehicle radiator during cold weather operation, or a screen to provide full air flow during warm weather.
