While I've got the rappy tore down for cleaning I've been thinking about putting a screen under the hood like alot of the 660 guys do. Is there any certain kind to buy and would a place like wal-mart or local hardware store have it?

 

you mean like window screen, you can get that at any local hardware store and i bet wal mart has it too

 

Good looking 350 Seth . I Used Stainless steel screen on mine . I overlayed the OEM plastic and pop rivited the outer corners . . I dont know what you might be up agaist as far aas fastening it to the grill
Good luck

 

i screned my blaster hood and it looks good i just used about 1 cm sq. chicken wire and held it in by duck tape and the light pushes on it. i like it that way because you dont have to sacrifice your light

 

So what would be the best way to mount it?

 

sorry if I sound like an idiot, but what are the benefits of this?

 

Better protection for the radiator, the stock plastic "grill" openings are big enough to let a good sized rock through.

I used a piece of aluminum mesh made to reinforce the bottom of a screen door. The holes are about 1/4" each and it doesn't restrict air flow. I used a couple of small zip ties to attach it to the stock plastic radiator protector.

 

Well I'm just doing it for looks- Raptor 350 is air cooled.
