The radiator grille is the part of the body shell on the front of
your car that covers the area where the air enters. The radiator
grille can also be part of the bumper on some cars.
The radiator is connected to the shroud for the radiator. The shroud
directs the air that comes in through the radiator grille to the
radiator only. This prevents the air from escaping around the
radiator and failing to cool the engine.
On newer cars, the radiator grille has been lowered to take advantage
of lower hood lines, brought about by an effort to increase fuel
efficiency. Older cars had massive grilles, whereas the cars now
produced have smaller more aerodynamic grilles.
