What's the point of a grille?
On a car, what's te point of having a grille? Without one you would get better air flow especially on newer hondas i've seen they have like barely any place for airflow.

It is for airflow, but they can't just have a hole, so they make grille with nice designs.
Cooling air for the radiator and engine. It's a trade off between streamlining and keeping the engine cool.
Modern designs pull up lot of air up from behind the front bumper, and so need a smaller front grille.
It improves the looks.
It stops larger debris getting into the radiators.
It helps prevent injury if you hit a pedestrian.
It can guide the airflow.
It can improve the aerodynamics.
To cover the radiator without impeding the air flow.
Because you need airflow through the radiator to cool the motor.
They are to protect the radiator from being hit by larger objects.
Originally, the grille was just a protective screen or structure placed ahead of the radiator to protect it from damage. As technology changed and designers looked for ways to distinguish their cars from others, the grille took on a more decorative role, but it still was needed to protect the opening in front of the radiator.
It's a piece of trim!
- Where is/are the jack point(s) on the engine in a '97 Honda CR-V, for replacing the engine and trans mounts? When replacing engine mounts in any vehicle, one step is to lift the engine slightly. On my '97 Honda CR-V, the bottom side of the engine appears to be mostly obscured by the oil pan. (Of course, trying to use the pan would result in disaster.) Images would be great… Detailed images with arrows, etc, would ROCK!
- Can anyone point me to a forum or website for fixing/replacing my door speakers in my 1996 Honda Civic DX? I've Googled my but off and either can't find the correct arrangement of words or what. I just need to figure out why they aren't working and how to properly wire the stock speakers.

- What's the point of the different drives in a car? I have a Honda Accord and it has a D4, D3, D2, and D1. I only use D4. What is the point of the other ones? And also when would you use neutral? Like when you're going down a huge hill?
