ABSTRACT:
A radiator cover for motor vehicles is used for fastening a radiator grill which is provided to protect and cover a heat exchanger arranged behind it for the engine cooling water. The radiator cover is fastened to the engine hood. A flush surface configuration between the radiator cover and the engine hood is advantageous for aerodynamic reasons. Known radiator covers are produced from metal and welded to the engine hood. Damage to the radiator cover, which involves high repair costs, occurs even in the case of minor collisions. The radiator cover according to the invention is produced from hard elastic plastic and fastened detachably to the engine hood. It projects into the region of the bumper and can execute a resilient yielding movement relative to the engine hood.
