On my '15 RG I took the filler panels out during the summer and put the radiator screens in. Haven't put the lowers on the '17 RG yet, but they will be going on at some point. The screens were about $15 each and you need a left and right. Part numbers: 57100151 and 57100152.

Piece. I wonder if anybody will make an aftermarket vent opening for that Area So You Can
Get more air flow through there. Seems like having that plug there is very un-aerodynamic and may have negative affect on gas mileage.
I had my RGS for a year with no lowers. With the stage 1, I get right at 43 MPG on the highway.

Last March, I added the Rushmore lowers. Now, I get...

Right at 43 MPG on the highway.

The lowers don't affect gas mileage, AT ALL.

ETA: Holy crow, this is an old remash... Sorry, folks.
